Lyrics:
There's a car parked where the block begins And there's a bird perched on a frayed wet wire And these people singing praises Say it's all because of him And his voice sings out for a lover But it's covered by the choir Of voices reaching way beyond the rafters Besides, we all are making money With devotion they perform these sacred tasks They cross themselves and offer up their checkbooks Slight suffering is not too much to ask And we don't know what we're doing And we're all fucking alone Because we know that we are lonely Maybe just buying us some hope Well, yeah, lonely that's for sure And the older ones are coughing Yeah, the older ones they're dying Maybe we're all dying On a fresh new mound of dirt Today I saw two dozen white roses I pass a graveyard on my way to work And I wondered about the occupant Was he calm and content? When the darkness finally swallowed him Or was he sweating in a struggle to keep breathing Ripping apart the sheets that dressed his bed Crying out loud for someone to help him Maybe it's me who's this unstable Then collapsing on his back all pale and dead Always obsessed about the end And just enjoy the time I spend? Why can't I let what happens happen But when there is no point to anything Oh, how I wish it was that easy You know it gets a bit confusing Why it is that I keep going Why is it that we keep going
