lyrics

When you die there's a hallway to the afterlife
but first there's a door in the hallway
inside is a room with a computer

On the computer is a blog
on the blog you're required to read
everything that everyone said about you
when you weren't there

Some of it is nice and some of it is not so nice
some of it is shocking and some of it is dull
some of it is video and some handwritten
someone drew a picture of you when you were 7 years old
someone tried to rat you out when you were 13 years old
someone was in love with you when you were 16 years old
and you never knew

Someone looked into your eyes before you were making memories

Someone couldn't remember your name
someone wanted you to shut up
someone wished you'd die when you cut them off in traffic
they all get their wish

Someone couldn't believe that you would eat that
someone stood up for you when no one else did
someone had the most bizarre fantasy about you
maybe you don't wanna know about it

Someone thought your shirt was really stupid
someone thought your shirt was awesome
someone was in love with you when you were 43
and 46

You thought no one read the thing you wrote
you thought no one heard the song you sang
you thought no one noticed you when you were really trying
and you went to sleep feeling so alone

Someone was in love with you when you were 81
and you never knew
