This Is Not the End Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tell me
Come on tell me what you can
Even as you wait for death
You're wiser than I am


Tell me
What does it mean to exist
I am not a scientist
I must believe in more than this


I cannot accept
Everything that's real
Is only what our eyes can see
And our hands can feel


[Chorus]
Not even Earth could hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
Are just as real as the time we spent
You'll always be close to me my friend
This is not the end


[Verse 2]
I see
I can see you're so afraid
You wear it like a silver hood
On you, even fear looks good
I wish
I wish I had some words to give
But all that I can think to say
Is "I'll be with you every day"


[Chorus]
Not even Earth could hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
Are just as real as the time we spent
You'll always be close to me my friend
This is not the end


[Bridge]
La la la la
La la la la la la
This is not the end
La la la la
La la la la la la
This is not the end
La la la la
La la la la la la
This is not the end
La la la la
La la la la la la
[Verse 3]
I don't care
I don't care what you believe
As long as you are in my heart
You're just as real as me

Maybe
Maybe even more
Someone who's touched so many lives
Could never ever die

[Chorus]
Not even Earth could hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
Are just as real as the time we spent
You'll always be close to me my friend
This is not the end


La la la la
La la la la la la
This is not the end
La la la la
La la la la la la
This is not the end
La la la la
La la la la la la
This is not the end

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
