We're All Gonna Die

Hey kid at the show tonight-- The face beyond the barricade How ya dance and ya sing to every single line Like it was you up on that stage I need to know your secret I'm asking you for help How do I fall in love with anything Like you seem to do so well? I gotta get back to when it came out The way it was supposed to sound Before money was ever changing hands And my feet were on the ground When I could feel the wind's direction When I knew what songs to sing And he said, "Try not to get upset Let it all go by Because how can it be that bad If we're all gonna die?" Soon I started to think about That girl that disappeared And if it really was the road that pulled me away Or if I'm still a victim of my fears How she showed me the machinery That our words protect us from How she could keep me in the moment How that's all there ever was I should call and ask to see her Even if it's just a couple days I could meet her out in Georgia Or she could fly out to LA And if the plane goes down on her way to me I think I know how she would react She'd smile and close her eyes-- Think about her life-- While some voice screaming in the back "We're all gonna die." So try not to get upset Everything is fine Hey, it's not that big a deal We're all gonna die
