Not Going Away ft. Night Falls Lyrics

Almost the man I want to be

So close for so long

I told you last night

That one day I'll be gone

We miss the dead

But do the dead miss us

Frozen photos

And a box of dust

To the mountains

We're just clouds passing through

I can think of plenty worse things to do

Not going away

No way now

Not going insane

Say no now

I got something to say

Don't know how

Got no one to blame

It's on me now

Not going away

No way now

Not going insane

Say no now

I got something to say

Don't know how

Got no one to blame

It's on me now

Breathe on the embers

That still glow in the ashes

Carry the fire

And you'll never need matches

Fuel the flame with the rejection letters

That burning hopefulness

That what we do matters

What good are chances that we never take?

What good's a legacy taken to the grave?

Unpublished novels left for dead on the shelf

Am I the serpent who is eating himself?

Not going away

No way now

Not going insane

Say no now

Got something to say

Don't know how

Got no one to blame

It's on me now

Not going away

No way now

Not going insane

Say no now

I got something to say

Don't know how

Got no one to blame

It's on me now

Not going away, no way, now

Not going insane, say no, now

I got something to say

Don't know how

Got no one to blame

It's on me now

I'm on a walk in the woods.

It's snowing

It's a walk that I do often

It's about 20 minutes out

20 minutes back on the same trail

And I'm amazed to see

That my footprints from the way out

Are already completely gone

It's like I wasn't even here
