Story Behind The Song
The subject for the song came to mind one day when i was going to work...
Song Description
The song consists of two different parts; a happy verse and a more gloomy refrain. For me it's about wanting nothing, giving up and having no ambitions. The happy music is a contrast to the lyrics, as singing is for a dead man.

Lyrics
I?m going out to see my friends today
they?re so happy and they?re oh so sad
I don?t know sad from happy anyway
everything means nothing to me now
So I start to enjoy it, have a few more drinks instead
And I feel it in my fingers, I?m still dead
I try and try and try to be distinct and clear
But I can?t understand what it?s about
And I lie and lie and lie and lie I don?t know why
I guess that?s why I can?t figure out
So I try to forget it, have a few more laughs instead
And I feel it in my fingers, I?m still dead
