lyrics

And I know, I know, I know the end is near.
I know because the storm clouds have appeared
upon your brow when I come around.
The lightning in your eyes could burn me down.

And I know, I know I worry way too much.
And I know you wish I wasn't so affixed
to this affliction of our time.
It's impossible to appreciate a life
flashed before our eyes.

I was six years old learning how to swim,
then I was thirty six wondering how I sunk.
It's as if the record jumped.
I know you wish I was here in the now,
taking stock in the fact you're still hangin 'round.
And I truly do - I'm just truly freaking out.
I truly believe the sky is falling down.

And I know, I know, I know the end is near.
And I know, I know it's all down hill from here;
we're all cascading to our graves,
tugging back at gravity's reigns.

And I know, I know the end will swallow us whole.
And I know because, well… that's just how it goes;
we all erode eventually.
I don't believe the fairytale of our eternity:
that carrot dangled through our youth,
and didn't it seem a tad obscene?
Your grandparents and pets waiting for you?

It scares me to death I might outlive you all,
all the eulogies, all the funeral costs.
All jokes aside, I simply can't bear the thought.
I hope I'm first in line when the dominoes start to fall.

And I know, I know, I know the end is near.
And I know, I know you're gonna disappear;
I'll turn away, and POOF - you're gone.
This life's a dirty prank, but still,
I'm glad to be put upon.
