I was so sorry when I heard of your disaster
No one should feel aimless through the night
You don’t have to live a life in plaster
You can’t just paint on your own face
Even if you think you’ve found the right shade
There’ll be someone telling you that you should be afraid
I keep facing the same old lessons
I never seem to learn them right
Now I know that there's no need for guessing
I won't hold on so tight
Even when I’m confronted by the demons of the past
I can close my eyes and see the darkness doesn’t last
My neighbour finally got her palm read
He said everyone has to choose
So she told herself it was in her head
But we’re not all fateless as all that
Even though they make believe that we are all alone
There’s no feeling like knowing you are going home
So maybe I’m a flower today
And tomorrow I will wither
You can be a piece of cake
And then just be a slither
The nature of impermanence
That’s a great experience
And if we all die alone
We can die together
And if we all die alone
We are home
