Forever In My Head

Can't I live forever in my head?
Can't I just resort to my head, be loved and be fed
By my most precious memories.

To live my moments again,
I don't want to die, I want to fly
Show everyone this is me.

I'll leave my body like it's nothing,
Give me knowledge and fun, just me as one
I want to live on and on and on.

How does it all just end?
A flash of holy white, possibly some fright
And that's it...

My success, my joy,
      my thoughts, my words,
           my imprint, my sounds,
                my movement, my gift,
                     my work, my legacy, my love...

Gone, in a heart beat.

A body decomposing in the heat.

Surely my being is kept alive
Ready for rebirth, ready to thrive
As only the strongest will ever survive

Can't I live forever in my head?
