Lyrics

I have lived over and over, survived a thousand lives,
A weathered stone in the flow of time.
I'm weary, yet give me forever - I'll assure you'll never fade.
Spread your spirit like the good word through the universe.

I'll keep your name awake...

While away, dreaming of someday
as we're lost to it's brevity.
Time is a distance we can't bridge
between this life and the next.
If loss is a hollow where the light in life begins to fade,
and grief is the natural end of love,
then those who die first are the lucky ones.

I have died over and over, shed my skin a thousand times,
but love is the stake in this heart of mine.
Every sunrise has it's season - I will hold you in your fall,
and face the winter cold all alone so you don't have to.

I'll keep your name awake...

And I will pray, as useless as it may be,
to give my place in hell away.
If heaven is true, that's where they'll bring you,
and I'll be damned if I don't get there too.
I'll storm the gates and plead my case,
exhibit our love as proof I'm saved.
If they turn me away, I'll leave you resting in peace
and make my home in your memory.
