Canary in a Coal Mine

You and I are friends of empty graves

Black air and black, black lungs

Am I the only thing that keeps you safe

When the light is gone?But I still hold out hope that maybe someday

I'll be worth more than all the silence left in my wake.Feed me promises, keep my heart well,

I'll sing you songs until the darkness does recede

But if in the end I lose my voice,

Will you forget about your love for me?And I still hold out hope that maybe someday

I'll be worth more than all the silence left in my wake.

And when you break the surface, oh without me

Please don't return me to the of unloved memories
