Fireworks Lyrics by Afterlives

A Ticking Clock I Couldn’t Stop

2009

When I die, I hope you're right next to me
It'd be a shame to realize there are no flashes
No grand finales, no [? 1:21], no time
It's just a little too late (too late)
All memories are erased
And I'm looking for your face
I'm grasping for you, and coming up empty
I'm grasping for you, and coming up empty
Don't we all deserve fireworks?
Forgive me for saying that this death deserves fireworks
Don't we all deserve fireworks?
Leave me here, my love, amongst the leaves, don't worry
And the grass still grows around me
If it rains, it rains, it rains
Would you visit me here in this place
Whisper to me, touch my face
Would you fight my battles
Don't let them forget that I mattered
All my life I believed that there was something better for me
But death takes everything, everything
So I hope you're next to me, so you can watch over me
We'll hang around, we'll stand our ground
'Til we get what we deserve
Don't we all deserve fireworks?
Don't we all deserve fireworks?
Don't we all deserve fireworks?
Don't we all deserve fireworks?
