[00:19.73]There is a car parked where the block begins
[00:25.17]And there are people singing praises
[00:27.97]Say it's all because of him
[00:32.92]There is a bird perched on a frayed wet wire
[00:38.42]And his voice sings out for a lover
[00:40.94]But it's covered by the choir
[00:46.82]Voices reaching way beyond the rafters
[00:50.34]With devotion they perform these sacred tasks
[00:54.18]They cross themselves and offer up their checkbooks
[00:57.97]Slight suffering is not too much to ask
[01:00.75]Besides we all are making money
[01:04.46]And we are all ****ing alone
[01:08.27]And we don't know what we are doing
[01:11.93]Maybe just buying us some hope
[01:15.72]Because we know that we are lonely
[01:19.58]Oh yeah, lonely that's for sure
[01:23.48]And the older ones are coughing
[01:27.47]And the older ones they are dying
[01:31.66]Maybe we are all dying
[01:55.86]I pass a graveyard on my way to work
[02:01.50]Today I saw two dozen white roses
[02:04.09]On a fresh new mound of dirt
[02:09.27]And I wondered about the occupant
[02:14.98]When the darkness finally swallowed him
[02:17.29]Was he calm and content
[02:22.85]Or was he sweating in a struggle to keep breathing
[02:26.96]Ripping apart the sheets that dressed his bed
[02:30.73]Crying out loud for someone to help him
[02:34.46]And collapsing on his back all pale and dead
[02:37.12]Maybe it's me who's this unstable
[02:40.55]Always obsessed about the end
[02:43.82]Why can't I let what happens happen?
[02:47.79]And just enjoy the time I spend
[02:50.99]Oh how I wish it was so easy
[02:54.25]But when there is no point to anything
[02:57.72]You know it gets a bit confusing
[03:01.31]Why is that I keep going?
[03:04.98]Why is that we keep going?
