Lyrics

What will be written on

Reflecting on the inscription that will be placed on my empty grave after my death.

My empty grave when I die

Wondering about the words or message that will mark my absence once I have passed away.

When they notice that I'm not around

Anticipating the moment when people realize my absence or departure.

Let my baby cry

Expressing a desire for my loved ones, particularly my baby, to grieve or mourn when I'm gone.


I won't be leaving much

Acknowledging that I won't leave behind many material possessions or significant things.

Just an handful of white lies

Admitting to having told a few harmless lies, not causing much harm.

You won't be missing me at all

Suggesting that my absence won't deeply affect or be missed by others.

When I rise

Imagining a scenario where, after leaving, there won't be any longing for my return.


And when the time comes i will go

Contemplating the inevitability of departing when my time arrives.

Leave everything behind

Intending to abandon or relinquish all possessions and ties before departing.

To places she will never know

Planning to venture to unknown places that will remain unfamiliar to someone important.

True self I wish to find

Expressing a desire to discover or reconnect with one's authentic self during this departure.


What will be written on

Repeating the initial reflection on what will be inscribed on my grave after I pass away.

My empty grave when I die

Reiterating the curiosity about the message or words marking my absence in death.


And when the time comes i will go

Reaffirming the contemplation of departing when the time is due.

Leave everything behind

Repeating the intention to leave behind everything before departing.

To places she will never know

Reiterating the plan to explore unknown places that will remain unseen or unknown to someone significant.

True self I wish to find

Reaffirming the desire to uncover one's genuine or true identity during this departure.
