Lyrics

Watch me living quickly
See me dying slow
Mortal fear it stares me down
But while I'm feeling sprightly
Brightly carpe diem shine
Tomorrow's holding the unknown
No use to sit here crying
With good things going on
The use of living's fighting dying
So everybody celebrate
grab your drink the hour's late
Smile and party till you are gone

So if you see me falling back to earth
Like a burnt out Russian satellite
Touch the sun's warm imprint on my chest
I'll be smiling though it seems that I've died
Remember I could fly

I sit alone in a small corner bookstore
Trying to work things out
Wondering why nothing is happening
Don't try to look me over
See thru like an empty glass
Go plug your ways at your stale 9 to 5
Rehearsing every Sabbath
When can we sign that deal
Found covered styles just don't fit
Butterflies and birds fill the heavens
I can make roses bloom
From this handful of shit
