lyrics

When I die, it will suffice if I’m surrounded by cardboard cutouts
That look vaguely like the people that I love
You don’t have to drop by to drop yours off if it’s too much hassle
Just throw it on the fire and let it burn
Do the same with mine when it’s your turn
Because all the things that help you sleep at night
Are all the things that are keeping me awake
And keeping me wondering
What was the point in putting up a fight
All those nights that you were keeping me at bay
For better or worse I’m always on the other side of town

None of my signs seem all that vital anymore
Which is a sure-fire sign that I need to find a pulse again somehow
At least now I remember Christmas Eve to keep me sober
and I’ll try to remember you when I rewire my mind
in an attempt to find new ways to be alone
I’ll try to use these new ways to be alone to understand
That all the things that help you sleep at night
Are valid reasons why I should stay away
And although the thought of checking out slows the world down right now
It won’t all be skin grafts and plane crashes someday.
