lyrics

When you die/ When you lean back to lay your head down for the last time/ Do you think of all the people you'll leave behind/ Does every dream you've ever had flash thru your mind//
When you're alone/when you've convinced yourself that no one wants to be around you/ do you hear the music you'd play if there was someone to hear you/do you listen to your wisdoms hiding from you

When you're high/ when you've satisfied your appetite for longing/do you think once there might be someone you're wronging/ maybe it's just you who's waiting for your loving//

You do a lot more good for the world while you're still in it/ Yet each day we need better reasons to get to the next minute/ Do you get back your deposit when you face that great concierge in the sky/ If you did not leave a footprint how can we introduce you/ Was it the red flash on the Sphinx's nose that took you/ How could you bail before leaving us something to remember you by/ The neoapocalytes are pounding in the door/ Do they know it's their own mortality they're fearin for? //

When you're blue/ When there's not another thing you can do/ Are you strong enough to rise up and walk away/ or do you stand to suffer through another day/ dying alone but still your way
