Death Of Me
Sci-Fi Lullaby Lyrics

I can't imagine all the precious time
I cannot believe how much time is wasted

Wasted on hazy ways to feel alive
Time is wasted on activities that merely create an illusion of being alive.

How could they let it all just slip away
It's astonishing that people allow time to just slip away.

But then again I do it every day
Although people do allow time to slip away, I'm guilty of doing it daily.

But hey, so far I've made it
I've made it this far without any apparent consequences.

And I guess it's what this trip is about
Perhaps, this is what life is all about - wasting time.

Yeah, and some, sometimes you fake it
Yes, and sometimes we pretend to be fully alive when we're not.

And sometimes you gotta just do without
Sometimes, we need to accept that we cannot have everything.

Yeah, well I hope you live forever
I wish you could live forever and avoid the struggles of this life.

But this life will be the death of me
This life, however, will eventually lead to my demise.

It made me want it all the more it by
Seeing everything I can't have only makes me desire for it more.

So many things I know I'll never have
There are many things I'm aware that I can never possess.

It seems to me this lack of quality
I regard this deficiency in quality as a significant issue.

Is finally starting to break down on me
I believe this flaw is finally breaking me down.

But we, still have each other
Despite all that, we still have each other.

Though sometimes I think you're getting ripped off
Although, at times, I sense you're being treated unfairly.

Now you see, compared to others
When compared to others, you may never reach the top.

You will never have a man at the top
You may never attain the highest level of success.

Me and you and the things we do
The things we do and that we share.

To pass the time in this crazy zoo
To occupy ourselves in this hectic life.

And all along we understood
And, all along, we knew that we were never going to have everything.

They just made it worse, but it felt so good
These things that we cannot have only make it worse for us, but we still seek them because they make us feel good momentarily.

Oh, slowly fallin' we're to high to stay forever
We're gradually reaching a point of no return.

And always be together
We will always be together, even though we're falling apart.

Slowly fallin' I'm too low to go on
I'm slowly losing the ability to carry on.

Well, I hope you live forever
I wish you could live forever and avoid the struggles of this life.

But this life will be the death of me
This life, however, will eventually lead to my demise.

Be the death of me
This life will be the cause of my eventual demise.

(If only we weren't so high)
I wish we weren't so caught up in our desires and thoughts.

(Oh no, If only we both had eyes down)
Unfortunately, we don't always see where we're headed.

(Oh yeah, If only we weren't so high)
Again, I wish we weren't so caught up in our ideas and desires.
