Is it selfish that I'm happy as we pass the setting sun?

Someday I'll be on the cast, but you won't have to cry Cause we'll do the greeting while I'm by your side I said, don't try to make yourself remember, darling Don't look for me, I'm just a story you've been told So let's pretend a little longer Cause when we're gone, everything goes on And I'm so scared of getting used to this All the vines that keep you tethered in your room You said I'm sorry that you love me, don't apologize I told you to forget me, but you stayed by my side When I said, don't try to make yourself remember, darling Don't look for me, I'm just a story you've been told So let's pretend a little longer Cause when we're gone, everything goes on
