Though I've tried, it's hard to resist staying alive
And we'd said all of our goodbyes before the sunlight blinded your eyes
And if I lay myself down and wake up near another sun
To you I'll be a star, a thousand years dead and gone
I just might need a couple of days
To make sense of this state that I'm in
These phantoms been following me
Now I'm staring them right in the face
Things might not be as f*cked as they seem
I just might need a couple of weeks
All this might take a couple of months
See we've run into some complications up here
Be patient and I might find a way to come home
'Cause I'd give my life to see the sunrise once more
Things might not be as f*cked as they seem
I just might need a couple of weeks
The storm before the calm comes
Where we are is not where we're from
If you find the embers of life
Please hold them near
Or the sun may never rise out here
I just might need a couple of weeks
