You said 'I hope you'll live forever',
'Don't you wish that on me'
You said 'Don't be clever.'
Aha.
You could keep diggin' down and down
A thousand graves down,
Without turnin' 'round or findin' Hell
You find you're diggin' up again.
Sit and think for a while and you'll realize that you just still die.
If you're not thinking at all I'm not sure why you're alive.
And it's hard to be a human
And it's harder as anything else.
And I'm lonesome when you're around.
And I'm never lonesome when I'm by myself.
Point A to point B, Oh I know
lots of points with no points in between for me
so lonely but never alone I know
I'm at my house but i wish that I was at home.
Other People's Lives seem more interestin'
'cause they ain't mine.
Well, I'm fed up and I need to go
Out of existence or just down the road
Forever.
How consistent.
How can some so consistently mess up as much as every instance.
How can someone inconsistent mess up so consistently.
You're hopelessly hopeless, I hope so, for you.
I'm working on drinking I'm working on driving I'm working on driving my drinks.
They Keep us in, to pull us out,
I'm rising up, wish i was sinking down.
The universe works on a math equation that never even ever really even ends in the end...
I wrote my name on the sun!
Hey, alright, I might be goddamned.
A life of arctic sounds.
Hey, alright, I might be goddamned.
All the sad comedians...
Hey, alright, I might be goddamned.
Eat my own blood and get filled up on it.
Even Crooks have to pay the rent.
You go out like a riptide
You know that a ball has no sides
you're an angel with an amber halo
black hair and the Devil's pitchfork
Wind up anger with an endless view of
the ground's colorful patchwork
How have you been?
You can see that we don't have to get along.
Self-pity me, so pitiful
You can see that birds and worms do not agree.
