In Case You Don’t Live Forever

In Case You Don’t Live Forever

Ben Platt

This song is addressed to Platt’s great-uncle, “the only other queer member of my family that I knew about.”

He writes about all of the things he wishes he could have vocalized to him before he passed away. Ben feels he never got to bond with him over their sexuality since he spent so much of his time when he was younger just hiding his own struggle.
