lyrics

It always starts with a slow fade
The depart it happens in some fresh way
And I'll see it coming, so i'll know when
But i've seen a few now
And they come and go
And it's shocking less and less the more I know

But I guess in the end we all expire
But you were always there
So I never had to be scared
Never had to be aware

God made our bodies for throw away
And I find i'm commanding myself to stay
And my half-life
is drawing near
And the good times
Won't ever ne here
And I suppose I'm glad that you actually cared

I read the news today
I saw another had died
It didn't shock me so much
But it was quite a surprise

And there's a mounting suspicion of who is next
But we had a dream of a great utopian scene
Why was there only me?

God made our bodies for throw away
And I find i'm commanding myself to stay
And my half-life
is drawing near
And the good times
Won't ever ne here
And I suppose I'm glad that you actually cared

I think I'd like to go home.
