When You Reach the End Lyrics

When you reach the end you cannot complain to the manager

No returns, no exchanges

Life is not refundable

Your body is just packaging, sent back for recycling

There never was a warranty

Make the best of it until it's time to go

When you reach the end you'll have to turn in all your memories

All the the good ones and the ugly ones will replay through all eternity

And we'll gather 'round in circles, telling stories of who we thought we were

Are you proud are you embarrassed?

Take one last look and then it's time to go

It's time to go

When you reach the end you'll see life is simple carpentry

You're given all the tools you need to build your own reality

Did you spend our time making heaven?

Or did you make your own hell?

Be honest with yourself, because what you build is where you get to go

When you reach the end it's true life goes on without you

And the last two thoughts inside of you are: "I'm sorry!" and "I love you!"

And as you fade into a memory, they'll measure up your heart to see

how much love you kept buried and how much love you were brave enough to show

How much love were you brave enough to show?

How much love are you brave enough to show?
