My coffin
You have seen me fall apart
You have seen me tear up from inside
You have seen breakdown
But I'll outlive the hands of time
I'll outlive this very life
Because I can't bare the pain to see you carry my coffin
You've seen my first tear, then you wiped it away
You heard my first word and thaught me a thousand more to say
So I can't have you accompany me to my grave
I can't have you see the silence in my face
I'll outlive the hands of time
I'll outlive this very life
Because I can't bare the pain to see you carry my coffin
You've given me love so kind
You've set me on my cause and a world to find
No parent ever has to bury their child
So I can't have you witness my final ride
I can't have you close my eyes
I'll outlive the hands of time
I'll outlive this very life
Because I can't bare the pain to see you carry my coffin
You have seen me tear up from inside
You have seen breakdown
But I'll outlive the hands of time
I'll outlive this very life
Because I can't bare the pain to see you carry my coffin
You've seen my first tear, then you wiped it away
You heard my first word and thaught me a thousand more to say
So I can't have you accompany me to my grave
I can't have you see the silence in my face
I'll outlive the hands of time
I'll outlive this very life
Because I can't bare the pain to see you carry my coffin
You've given me love so kind
You've set me on my cause and a world to find
No parent ever has to bury their child
So I can't have you witness my final ride
I can't have you close my eyes
I'll outlive the hands of time
I'll outlive this very life
Because I can't bare the pain to see you carry my coffin
