It all set in so slow There's no light I fear the twilight of my prime Because right now it feels so much Like it's gonna be the end of my little life I wanna drain the marrow 'fore I make old bones It's been really nice to know you but for now I gotta go I'm not long for this world It's nice to know, mwah
[Chorus] So are we water without solubility? We're not so bright for breathing cosmic debris No, we can't see I want vertiginous height and speed That just might kill me
[Bridge] I am not a spirited vision like those young lovelies And I'm never gonna feign an admission 'Cause that doesn't interest me I know there's much more left than this slow death That we all suffer at their behest But I just can't see What's happening to me
[Verse 2] Because I'm never gonna see what I'm missing with eyes on my feet And I'm never call this a living When it's all so rote and unhappy How can I say I made a change When I'm getting further every day I'm not one for this world (From consistency, from some stability) It's nice to know, mwah
[Chorus] So are we water without solubility? We're not so bright for breathing cosmic debris No, we can't see I want vertiginous height and speed That just might kill me
[Bridge] One day you're here and the next day you're gone The only purpose I feel remains in song If Freddie wrote his Rhapsody at 29 Maybe I still have time for mine I know a poet will find no use for peace I know this is the only way it should be I'll be dead before I know I'm dying But it doesn't feel unnatural to me
[Pre-Chorus] So I howl at the sun It's taken years but I feel that I'm done Taking posies out my pockets We can all fall down, we can stop it There's no place for me, my ten dollar words And all the little vanities this world incurs It's sixes and sevens Can we create a heaven?
[Chorus] So are we water without solubility? We're not so bright for breathing cosmic debris No, we can't see I want vertiginous height and speed (That just might kill me) So are we water without solubility? We're not so bright for breathing cosmic debris No, we can't see I want vertiginous height and speed That just might kill me
[Outro] I am not a spirited vision like those young lovelies And I'm never gonna feign an admission 'Cause that doesn't interest me I know there's much more left than this slow death That we all suffer at their behest But I just can't see What's happening to me
