“An Epitaph” is based on a former relationship. This person misses his ex dearly, and hopes she knows that she hurt him, and that he’s done thinking about her. No matter the pain and how much he thinks about her, he will move on and keep fighting, one day at a time.
I used to be scared of death
But now it's my only friend
I found comfort in it's embrace
And solace in the grace that it leaves me each night
I am no longer afraid to die
Because my world's become so empty
And you were so young, I owe this all to you
You live in my every word
You're the reason that I'm still alive
No one deserves to die
I never got to say goodbye
So this is my goodbye to you
And I hope wherever you are
That you hear how my voice sounds now
How in six years I haven't drowned
In the shadow that I have become
In the shadow of my everyday
In the darkness that I have become
In the shadow of my everyday
And I still miss you
You were the place that I called home
And I am so alone
