Introduction

Bad things happen every day

Cancer and murder and herpes and AIDS

We'll all die alone someday

I hope we don't die alone

x2

And our vices make it bearable enough

To know our lives are shit but to not give a fuck

They make it bearable enough to

Help us on our way

x2

Still, it feels nice to feel alive

To try and find a house or home or someplace to thrive

It feels great to feel alive

Except for all those times we feel dead

x2

And how do we maintain our buoyancy

In this salty lake of shit and tears and murder and disease?

How do we keep ourselves afloat

In all this sad stuff?

x2

I've got to know the answers

I've got to know it now

I need to know the answers

I have to know how

We'll all die alone someday

I hope we don't die alone
