Verse 1:
dear future generations,
I know in a few years,
Every little thing will change,
I don’t wanna be standing alone,
In a crowd,
I don’t wanna be left alone,
Promise me,
You will stay,
You’ll carry me away,
Take me outta the fire,
Take me through the smoke,
Baby don’t leave me alone,
I don’t wanna die,
Without someone by my side,
Clear things up for me if you might,
Are you my friend,
Are you my boyfriend,
Do I let you go,
Or do I want you to stay,
Away,
Let me die in peace,
baby.

chorus:
lie me down,
on a bed of roses,
let me rot away,
let me drown in my own tears,
let the blood rush down my face,
my veins are cold,
I am broken,
and awake,
dear future generations,
never take the first escape,
you die when you die,
you will only be alive,
for a little while longer,
live life to the extremes,
ride a motorcycle,
go sky diving if you please,
gee just don’t take me with you,
I wanna cry alone,
I wanna go buy own damn fries,
and live my life,
in perfect disguise.

verse 2:
I am scared,
of the ghost within me,
I am afraid,
i am not alright at all,
I feel so small.
Dear future generations,
you are worth a hella a lot,
don’t let your nightmares influence you to want to sit in thought,
you are beautiful,
you are a star,
shining above,
and I will always look upon you,
You bet I will.

chorus:
lie me down,
on a bed of roses,
let me rot away,
let me drown in my own tears,
let the blood rush down my face,
my veins are cold,
I am broken,
and awake,
dear future generations,
never take the first escape,
you die when you die,
you will only be alive,
for a little while longer,
live life to the extremes,
ride a motorcycle,
go sky diving if you please,
gee just don’t take me with you,
I wanna cry alone,
I wanna ybuymy own damn fries,
and live my life,
in perfect disguise.

Verse 4:
I escaped,
I escaped,
I escaped,
I am out and away,
I moved out of my home town,
I kicked my anxiety to the curb,
and i lived to tell the journey,
