Senses Fail - Stay What You Are

All the maps of the world have been drawn
There's nothing to explore except your face
I keep getting older but my heart stays the same age
I never wanna live forever cause I'd have to watch everyone die
Death is what makes this whole life meaningful and what keeps me alive

I'm scared to death that I will never
Make it out alive and I'll be stuck in this mess forever
The older that I get the more I find that each moment is a gift in time
The first time you saw a [?]
You never made it home you spent the night with me
When I was young it was a mystery it took me years
But now I finally see what it is that you meant to me
Stay what you are will always be our eulogy

When it rains in LA people lose their shit
Just like I lost my mind in 2006
That anxious boy has been buried in a shallow ditch
One day when I'm rotting in my grave
I'll look back on my life and I will say why the hell
Did it take me so long to back that bottle off my lips
Am I wasting all my time trying hard
To find the line between holding on and letting go

The older that I get the more I find that each moment is a gift in time
The first time you saw a [?]
You never made it home you spent the night with me
When I was young it was a mystery it took me years
But now I finally see what it is that you meant to me
Stay what you are will always be our eulogy

I remember when you whispered in my ear
"Do not fear when I am gone, I'll be right here
When all the world is wasting away I'll hold my heart and say your name"

The older that I get the more I find that each moment is a gift in time
The first time you saw a [?]
You never made it home you spent the night with me
When I was young it was a mystery it took me years
But now I finally see what it is that you meant to me
Stay what you are will always be our eulogy

Am I wasting all my time trying hard
To find the line between holding on and letting go
