If I Died Last Night Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Some things, they're solid, they're built to last
Some things, they fall apart, they break like glass
Sometimes, it's scary what they call love
And how fast what is can turn to what was

[Pre-Chorus]
Waking up this morning and I'm drunk again
Without you here
Went outside and I lit up a cigarette
And it made me think

[Chorus]
If I died last night in an aeroplane
In a pileup on the interstate
If I closed my eyes and went up in flames
If I took too much and I suffocate
It would tear me apart, it would haunt me forever
So much you'd never gеt to know
If I died last night
If I died last night

[Verse 2]
Can't stand the thought of you gеtting that call
Dropping your phone, running down the hall
Blaming yourself for when shit hit the wall
And drowning my memory in alcohol
[Pre-Chorus]
If I went to Heaven, it would still be Hell
Without you there


[Chorus]
If I died last night in an aeroplane
In a pileup on the interstate
If I closed my eyes and went up in flames
If I took too much and I suffocate
It would tear me apart, it would haunt me forever
So much you'd never get to know
If I died last night
If I died last night

[Bridge]
I'm sorry, I hate this
I've never felt so alone
I need you now, so come over
I just want you to know

[Chorus]
If I died last night in an aeroplane
In a pileup on the interstate
If I closed my eyes and went up in flames
If I took too much and I suffocate
It would tear me apart, it would haunt me forever
So much you'd never get to know
If I died last night (If I died last night)
If I died last night

Genius Annotation

“I wrote ‘If I Died Last Night’ because I have a lot of impending doom. I have a deep rooted fear, and just feeling that life is coming to an end a lot and that’s a horrible feeling to have. So I wrote ‘If I Died Last Night’ about that and pretty much like what the person I wrote it about how they would react if that happened, just sick and fucked.”
