The Universe Wants To Kill Us 02:41
lyrics
buy track
The Universe Wants to kill us A meteorite exploded with the force of twenty-five Atom bombs, twenty kilometers up we watched on Dashboard Cams that every Russian car has To protect people from lawsuits and police corruption If it had been a little bigger It would have killed us No charming crew of rig pigs and roughnecks There to save us We'd be like the dinosaurs All our petty problems gone to Dust in the atmosphere Blotting out the sun Ash right before our eyes Killing everyone The Universe wants to kill us Oh, the Universe wants us dead If an asteroid doesn't get the job done Something else will instead. On the very same day a forty thousand ton asteroid Passed very near (at least on a cosmic scale) If we had had a little less luck there'd be Another Tunguska (you should really look Tunguska up if you get chance) If it had passed a little closer It might have killed us No charming crew of rig pigs and roughnecks There to save us We'd be like the dinosaurs All our petty problems gone to Dust in the atmosphere Choking out the sun Ash right before our eyes Killing everyone The Universe wants to kill us Oh, the Universe wants us dead If an asteroid doesn't get the job done Something else will instead. The Universe wants to kill us It doesn't like us alive Eventually it will succeed I hope we've got some time

On not enjoying a celebration 02:37
lyrics

Okay I was gone for awhile and I'm really happy for you guys and yeah, it's what I said I always wanted But I've been wrong once or twice and This feels wrong it isn't mine it belongs to people who actually got it So enjoy yourselves (you know it's later than you think) But it feels empty to me I'm not saying you've got it wrong I'm not saying anything It's not you this is my malady We'll get along alright I'll Sing a song sometime tonight but I know well enough I'm not the star of the show People are here to have a good time I'm not trying to get them down I'm just shy these are the songs that I know how to write So raise your glass if you feel alone when you're in a crowd Even surrounded by the ones you love Put your hands up if you feel like you want to leave early tonight Put your hands up if you need to take a break and get some air outside
