On My Way To Work-Bright Eyes

[00:19.73]There is a car parked where the block begins [00:25.17]And there are people singing praises [00:27.97]Say it's all because of him [00:32.92]There is a bird perched on a frayed wet wire [00:38.42]And his voice sings out for a lover [00:40.94]But it's covered by the choir [00:46.82]Voices reaching way beyond the rafters [00:50.34]With devotion they perform these sacred tasks [00:54.18]They cross themselves and offer up their checkbooks [00:57.97]Slight suffering is not too much to ask [01:00.75]Besides we all are making money [01:04.46]And we are all ******* alone [01:08.27]And we don't know what we are doing [01:11.93]Maybe just buying us some hope [01:15.72]Because we know that we are lonely [01:19.58]Oh yeah, lonely that's for sure [01:23.48]And the older ones are coughing [01:27.47]And the older ones they are dying [01:31.66]Maybe we are all dying [01:55.86]I pass a graveyard on my way to work [02:01.50]Today I saw two dozen white roses [02:04.09]On a fresh new mound of dirt [02:09.27]And I wondered about the occupant [02:14.98]When the darkness finally swallowed him [02:17.29]Was he calm and content [02:22.85]Or was he sweating in a struggle to keep breathing [02:26.96]Ripping apart the sheets that dressed his bed [02:30.73]Crying out loud for someone to help him [02:34.46]And collapsing on his back all pale and dead [02:37.12]Maybe it's me who's this unstable [02:40.55]Always obsessed about the end [02:43.82]Why can't I let what happens happen? [02:47.79]And just enjoy the time I spend [02:50.99]Oh how I wish it was so easy [02:54.25]But when there is no point to anything [02:57.72]You know it gets a bit confusing [03:01.31]Why is that I keep going? [03:04.98]Why is that we keep going?
