When I leave this earth I'm not sure where I'll go
Will goodbye feel like a way to say hello?
Would you want a list of those who would be sad?
Will they say it was a shame or that's too bad?
How much will it hurt to leave the ones you love?
On long days and fast years
A song burns in my ears
That I never quite hear
On long days and fast years
Give me strength when I am hurting
Send your angels from the dirt
Send Jack and Jean and Ki to me, ASAP
Ain't nobody quitting here, but I know that I am weak and I get scared still at the doctors
Who will prepare delivery from the church of non-belief?
Call it artistic or agnostic, altruistic, now I lost it
This uncertainty just gets to me
On long days and fast years
A song burns in my ears
That I never quite hear
On long days and fast years
All the things we thought we were supposed to be
Promises I made to you and you to me, the day will come
When the ones I love have gone from here
Make me electrons, make me dirt and light,
The angels sleep with you tonight, they'll be no more
Long days and fast years
A song burns in my ears
That I never quite hear
On long days and fast years
On long days and fast years
A song burns in my ears
That I never quite hear
On long days and fast years
