Conversations |
I remember vividly |
My tears dropping on the grey carpet on the top step |
Pops giving me his best guess |
Me confessing the burning question stressing and concerning me and |
Turning me to a wet mess |
It’s probably nothing |
I get it, I’m aware |
I know it’s probably stupid to be scared |
But these days are flying past us and nobody seems to care |
It’s like we’re sprinting towards a brick wall we’re pretending isn’t there |
What happens when we hit it? |
Do we split into a million bits |
Or do we come back as a bullfrog and talk in ribbits? |
What is it? |
What is it? |
You got the answer so give it, so give it, so give it |
Don’t lie, what happens when we die? |
Dad says, Georgie I’m just guessing from what I’ve been told |
Probably thinking, «How'd I raise this emo fucking nine-year- old?» |
Since I’m sorta really not religious it’s a crapshoot |
I roll a pair of dice |
Although the thought of paradise is very nice |
In my heart I know I don’t believe in magic |
So I’m thinking maybe death is like eternal TV static |
Or returning to the state before your birth |
Absorbed into the earth |
The fewer hours left the more they’re worth |
I admit that it’s difficult to think about |
I think everybody got a little bit of doubt |
You don’t get to hide from it even if you shout |
Not a soul on the planet gets to wiggle out |
And he said that I know that’s it’s tough to take in son but it’s so early |
I can see you’re in a hurry but don’t worry cause |
That isn’t for a long, long time |
That isn’t for a long, long time |
That isn’t for a long, long time |
That isn’t for a long, long, long, long time |
Life moves fast |
Made the mistake of blinking, twenty years passed |
Now I’m sitting in my living room in Brooklyn with my father |
We don’t bother doing Christmas in the Bay any longer |
It’s first time that we’ve had this conversation |
He says «It's tough to take in |
I know we’re not quite ancient |
But we’ve reached age where we should probably talk arrangements |
We could take it several routes |
We could sell the house |
We can’t work forever, eventually money will run out |
That’s a spot taking a loan would help us cover |
Which would make it tougher to leave something for you and your brother» |
Stop—can't you see? |
Every meal that you paid for me |
All this power to chase a dream |
All this privilege not to crave riches |
But it’s plain to me the key fact is it’s easy to act like cash means jack shit |
if |
You never lacked it |
And the greatest honor I could have is to make a buck and pass back a |
Fraction of all the happiness you gave to me |
And I will never make you live where you don’t aim to be |
Age is just data |
We paint our story A to Z then dip out |
R.I.P. |
rip out, we tear out the pages |
Tear up the stage and we take a seat |
Making a vacancy |
Famous or not, we fade from the plot |
Every day when a new night falls |
I ride around the sun on this big blue ball |
I get a bit further from the kid called Paul |
And I get a bit closer to the big brick wall |
But since inching up to that fence |
I can run my fingers against all the bricks and mortar and sense |
That it’s not so cold and so dense |
And although I’m mournful I’ve known that I’m not immortal |
I’m not banging into stone but I’m more heading through this portal |
We’re born to return to home we’re all born to be mincemeat |
Everything dies except for Papaya King hotdogs on 86th St |
Dad hands me a napkin tells me it’s been the same since the fifties |
He didn’t always love the city but dammit he’ll miss me |
How can you miss something after you leave, I agree that it’s sad, but please |
Don’t dwell on it Dad, because— |
That isn’t for a long, long time |
That isn’t for a long, long time |
That isn’t for a long, long time |
That isn’t for a long, long, long, long time |
