Vital Signs |
| This country is my canvas |
| I leave paint trails as I go |
| I’m painting a picture |
| That you can only see from outer space |
| My bedroom is your sofa |
| I take my breakfast on the train |
| I’m tired and I’m dirty, and not a second goes to waste |
| I’ll be dead but never dying, and I say that with a smile |
| It’s just my way of trying to be alive |
| Well I’ll never get to grey hair |
| And I’ll never be in the black |
| But I can tell stories that most can hardly dream |
| Dreaming is a luxury |
| Like stopping-staring and beauty sleep |
| I’ll stop when I’m finished |
| And sleep is for the week |
| I’ll be dead but never dying, and I say that with a smile |
| It’s just my way of trying to be alive |
| Heaven’s in the half-light, and that’s where I reside |
| A whiskey and a wry smile |
| I check my vital signs |
| And when I’m gone |
| The worlds revolve and life goes on |
| So mark no grave |
| Forget my name |
| If the song remains |
| And everybody’s got a drink and a smile |
| Well, that’s just fine by me |
| Heaven’s in the half-light, and that’s where I reside |
| A whiskey and a wry smile |
| I check my vital signs |
| I’ll be dead but never dying, and I say that with a smile |
| It’s just my way of trying to be alive |
