\nThey promise that you\u2019ll need them when it\u2019s time

And hell is a second that\u2019s never enough
\nIt\u2019s every minute we\u2019re not making love, it\u2019s the millionth empty photograph
\nYou get with the tunes, you missed the eclipse

\nAm I a fool to search for something in between?
\nAnd what can it mean to you and I in our situation?
\nI was born to love you \u2018till the day you die
\nAnd so to be or not to be,
\nImagination is the only place that\u2019s safe for us to decide<\/p>\n

\nBut go to old Siam, you can point out planet Mars.
\nSo why keep dreaming upon a guiding star?
\nWhen to be or not to be is all we are.<\/p>\n
So to be or not to be was the question
\nWhen I broke your heart I threw away a friend
\nEach Romeo may find his Juliet
\nBut miscommunication can lead to such a bitter end
\nSo how do we live through the stars conspiracy?
\nWe know we\u2019ve got to be\u2026or not to be.<\/p>\n
When I\u2019m in New York City, the snow can freeze my feet
\nBut go to sunny Spain, I soon pick up the beat.
\nSo don\u2019t keep pushing that lucky charm too hard
\n\u2018cause to be or not to be is all we are\u2026<\/p>\n
So to be or not to be, it\u2019s got me running
\nAm I unwise to close my eyes to what it gives?
\nOh to be or not to be is the question
\nI wish that I could find alternatives<\/p>\n
My love for you is still as steady as a boat
\nCommanded by a Captain of the highest note

I took a photograph to capture time.
\nWhen I saw the epitaph it made me cry. It read:<\/p>\n
\u201cNothing really matters when the sun shines\u201d<\/p>\n
I miss telling her stories and the way she would ignore me
