You only get to realize that you're alive once
And it's the absolute best feeling you can feel
Everything is colourful, it's vivid now, it's wonderful
And all because I know it isn't real
You only realize that some day you'll die once
And every day thereafter is a gift
Some day your bones turn back to oil
How soon our souls will turn to soil
It's a miracle that we get to exist
I'll learn the names of all the termites that eat my wooden teeth
And I'll shake the tiny hands of all the worms that squirm beneath
And when I look down past the bug bites at my decomposing feet
Turning back into the earth from which I've grown
Oh! She'll whisper to me, "Darling, welcome home"
You only realize that some day you'll die once
And your memories will wash off with the rain
All your history, and all you feel
And all you see, it's only real
In the organic matter of your brain
You only get to realize that you're alive once
And somehow that day feels like the first
First you grow and then decay
The breeze will blow your bones away
Don't wait 'til then to realize what they're worth
I'll befriend the fuzzy fungus blooming from my jacket pocket
And I'll smile at the maggots squirming 'round in my eye sockets
They're my brothers and sisters, taught me there's no way to stop it
The expanding sun approaches 'til we're burned
She'll whisper, "Tell me, darling, everything you've learned"
You only get to realize that you're alive once
And it's the absolute best feeling you can feel
Such silly thoughts keep us awake
The important things are not at stake
I don't lose sleep 'cause I know I'm not real
So I say let the angry bugs in my intestines wage their wars
And I'll watch the hungry beetles pick the scabs and peel the scars
And when I look back at this planet from the void between the stars
In the arms of some celestial source of time
She'll show me everything was bound to turn out fine
And it's the absolute best feeling you can feel
Everything is colourful, it's vivid now, it's wonderful
And all because I know it isn't real
You only realize that some day you'll die once
And every day thereafter is a gift
Some day your bones turn back to oil
How soon our souls will turn to soil
It's a miracle that we get to exist
I'll learn the names of all the termites that eat my wooden teeth
And I'll shake the tiny hands of all the worms that squirm beneath
And when I look down past the bug bites at my decomposing feet
Turning back into the earth from which I've grown
Oh! She'll whisper to me, "Darling, welcome home"
You only realize that some day you'll die once
And your memories will wash off with the rain
All your history, and all you feel
And all you see, it's only real
In the organic matter of your brain
You only get to realize that you're alive once
And somehow that day feels like the first
First you grow and then decay
The breeze will blow your bones away
Don't wait 'til then to realize what they're worth
I'll befriend the fuzzy fungus blooming from my jacket pocket
And I'll smile at the maggots squirming 'round in my eye sockets
They're my brothers and sisters, taught me there's no way to stop it
The expanding sun approaches 'til we're burned
She'll whisper, "Tell me, darling, everything you've learned"
You only get to realize that you're alive once
And it's the absolute best feeling you can feel
Such silly thoughts keep us awake
The important things are not at stake
I don't lose sleep 'cause I know I'm not real
So I say let the angry bugs in my intestines wage their wars
And I'll watch the hungry beetles pick the scabs and peel the scars
And when I look back at this planet from the void between the stars
In the arms of some celestial source of time
She'll show me everything was bound to turn out fine
