Decades in sequins

Let go of your affection
Crying doesn't wake the dead
Dream like you never met him
Rest your head
I awoke instead
Learn how to make it easier
Smile if you see them smile
Now isn't that much easier
Like a breath
Like a breath
While he lived in the spotlight
All of his cries for help seemed like a joke
Now that he's on the other side
I'm scared I will follow him
I'm scared I might go
I'll never share the feeling
What's there to call my own
I'm lasting in who's memories
Like a breath
Like a breath
So close
Fading out of this world
Fading out of this body
Closer every time I try
While he lived in the spotlight
All of his cries for help seemed like a joke
Now that he's on the other side
I'm scared I will follow him
I'm scared I might go
Like a breath
Like a breath
