The Afterburn of Being Born

Under each foot you lay

And overspace

There is a grave

Of something

An idea, a best friend, everything that's seen its end

And tonight you feel so alive

Do you realize that when you lie

And look at the stars they've already burned out

So catch your breath and breathe now

While you still can

While you still can

You said if i could befriend a thousand cancers,

If things that killed could be cured, then i would live forever

There'd be no death, there'd be no birth

I said resurrect the dead in your head

And ask them about heaven

You said you already did and they told you

There's not one at all

Nothing to do but haunt where you walk

Nothing to do but haunt where you walk.
