The Danse Macabre

Thoughts about death in bed

Memento mori strikes
I bolt upright at 3am in the night
Been thinking about nature films
And falling asleep in church

In my empty bed
Drenched with sweat and hyperventilating
But I can't talk about it no no no

But if you were there
Right there by my side
You could be rubbing my back in a circular motion
Or helping me suppress my

Thoughts about death in bed

Memento mori strikes
I feel it's breath on my neck all the time
But we can't talk about it no no no

And if you were there
You could sympathise
And start patiently explaining my secular notions
Or help me express my thoughts

I need you here by my side
To tell me to pull myself together
When I'm hysterical

I need you here by my side
To tell me that nothing lasts forever
So lets us two do The Danse Macabre

Thoughts about death in bed
