Dust

While I'm here I want to leave my mark
 Want to do my thing before it all goes dark
 'Cause what else could I ever be for?
 I'm nothing if I don't have these
 Silly mantra melodies
 How else could I find any peace?
 All I am and all I've known
 Is nothing if I get there all alone
 Then again that's how it all started
 Just me and these four walls
 Singing out words to an empty hall
 With an echo
 Before I go and turn to dust I'd like to say I love you
 Before I go and turn to dust I'd like to say it
 While I'm here I want to take a chance
 Maybe find true love in a passing glance
 And take her in like I never have before
 But is she just another line
 Waiting for teh final rhyme
 I'd like to know how my story ends
 But listen back when I've gone away
 Maybe find some words that you never did say and
 Send them out deep into space
 You never know, maybe I'll
 Hear you and you'll start to cry
 Without really knowing a reason why
 Before I go and turn to dust I'd like to say I love you
 Before I go and turn to dust I'd like to say it
 When I look back in my final hours
 Will I cower at the sight of a could have been or should have been
 Or will I smile and slip away?
 Before I go and turn to dust I'd like to say I love you
 Before I go and turn to dust I'd like to say it
