One Way Ticket

[Verse 1]
I’ve spent so many nights lost in the pictures
I’ve held my fists so tight my knuckles crack
I scream so violently into my pillow
But nothing that I do will bring you back
I’ve scribbled out these words too many ways now
I’m such a hypocrite, I feel so weak
So quick to call religion just faith in science fiction
Yet here I am now praying on my knees

[Pre-Chorus]
But I don’t need a god, I need more of your time
And it’s selfish that I feel left behind
No one knows why we don’t always get a warning
I just hope that soon enough I’ll get a sign

[Chorus]
Cause I can’t go where you’re going
So just promise you’ll come and visit
It’s not fair never knowing
Where you went on that one way ticket

[Verse 2]
I wonder where you are, if you can hear me?
You light up all the darkness in my mind
I feel you from a distance like you’re near me
I wish that I could see you one more time
So many different questions that I’d ask you
I really need to know that you’re alright
No clue what I believe in apart from what I’m feeling
And it feels like you’re still here at my side

[Pre-Chorus]
But I don’t need a god, I need more of your time
And it’s selfish that I feel left behind
No one knows why we don’t always get a warning
I just hope that soon enough I’ll get a sign

[Chorus]
Cause I can’t go where you’re going (No, I can't go there)
So just promise you’ll come and visit (Oh-oh-oh)
It’s not fair never knowing (And I can't know it)
Where you went on that one way ticket

[Bridge]
Yeah, I know you rest in peace (I know you rest in peace)
But now I can hardly sleep (I just can't calm when I want to)
I know you rest in peace (Ooh)
But now I can hardly sleep (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[Chorus]
Cause I can’t go where you’re going (No, I can't go there)
So just promise you’ll come and visit (You said you'd come visit now)
It’s not fair never knowing (And I can't know it)
Where you went on that one way ticket (On that one way)

[Outro]
"Tell me what you guys do today. Give me an update, okay? Love you."
