None of This Really Matters

Sorry to be late
I was busy tempting fate
Guess that's always been my role
And I've been walking to the beat
Of every funeral I meet
It's been November in my soul
I spent the winter tying knots
Spent the summer getting lost
'Til I could not see the shore
And I was chasing fame and love
Turns out none of them's enough
I do not want this anymore
I do not want this anymore

'Cause none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters, anymore

Well my fear once filled the skies
Like a Red-winged blackbird cry
But I'm done with that it seems
Go ahead and light my funeral pyre
I've escaped more beds on fire
Than I have had sweet dreams
And I used to duck a punch
Drink myself no longer drunk
Now I'm running down the clock
And there's a flag flying on my street
One of permanent defeat
But I do not give a fuck
No, I do not give a fuck

'Cause none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters, anymore
No, none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters, anymore

Well, my country, it's gone mad
And every way it turns out bad
Tell me again what it is you think you've won
And don't sell me your cheap hope
I'll take a length of good strong rope
It'll serve me when time comes
And we've drained the future dry
And now we're eyeing up the sky
Like there's time to save the race
Yeah, and there's nothing left to steal
We're pissing on the rear right wheel
Like we're headed into space
Like we're headed into space

And from the island to the hills
Got my own white whale to kill
I'm still haunted by the ghost
Yeah, but I still hear the call
A Catskill Eagle in my soul
Yeah, and I got more than most
Yeah, I got more than most
Yeah, I got more than most

'Cause none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters, anymore
No, none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters, anymore

In a world on fire
World on fire
In a world on fire
World on fire
In a world on fire
World on fire
In a world on fire
World on fire

None of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters, anymore
None of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters, anymore
Anymore
