When I'm Dead
The great beyond is underwhelming
(A waste of effort)
I mean at first it had its charm
(I ran 'em through and through)
I've touched the stars, witnessed creation
(Love lost and lassoed)
I'm out of new, sound the alarm
(Infinity eats you)
I'm bored I'm buggin' and I'm brazen
(My bones are buzzin')
My after bucket list is wiped
(I miss the other side)
Then from the blank prances a presence
(He's got a cool hat)
He whispers "You should get a life"
(My spirit starts to rise)
All aboard come and cease to be deceased
You wanna be where the grass is greener, ooh
An incantation, a corporeal feeling
A breakthrough, a breakdance
I can't resist
(Hy-diddle-dum-diddle-dee-dy-dee-dee
Hy-diddle-dum-dee-dy
Hy-diddle-dum-diddle-dee-dy-dee-dee
Hy-diddle-dum-dee-dy)
Hanging euphoria by a thread
Just out of reach as it ever was when I'm dead
I guess I wasn't satisfied to begin
I wanted more than the everything at the end
Shakin' my legs infused with new sensation
The mortals retching at my restoration
What am I doing wrong?
(Perhaps it's the putrescence)
You've been bamboozled kid, I thought I wanted this
Waiting eternity with eyes on the horizon
Every moment passing silently by
(Careful what you wish for)
(Hy-diddle-dum-diddle-dee-dy-dee-dee
Hy-diddle-dum-dee-dy
Hy-diddle-dum-diddle-dee-dy-dee-dee
Hy-diddle-dum-dee)
Hanging euphoria by a thread
Just out of reach as it ever was when I'm dead
I guess I wasn't satisfied to begin
I wanted more than the everything at the end
All this time I've looked away
Was it ever really greener?
Never been here
Not really here
(Keep chasing every fleeting hunger
And betting on the next)
Waiting an eternity with eyes on the horizon
(You were never really here)
Every moment passing silently by
(Careful what you wish for)
Hanging euphoria by a thread
Just out of reach as it ever was when I'm dead
(When I'm dead)
Hanging euphoria by a thread
Just out of reach as it ever was when I'm dead
I guess I wasn't satisfied to begin
I wanted more than the everything at the end
(A waste of effort)
I mean at first it had its charm
(I ran 'em through and through)
I've touched the stars, witnessed creation
(Love lost and lassoed)
I'm out of new, sound the alarm
