We All Gotta Die

from isolation​:​001 by Mike Maimone

lyrics

Sun it shines, birds they sing
A perfect morning, it would seem
I don't think that I can make it
Coffee's on, a smile too
Gotta look A1 for you
I don't think that I can fake this

We all gotta die, we all gotta die
deep inside, we're terrified
happiness will subside
Nothing lasts forever, we all gotta die

Yesterday I leapt from bed
Ready for the day ahead
Now I'm ready to surrender
Life's a bike, pedal or drop
You fall over when you stop
Clear out for the next contender

We all gotta die, we all gotta die
deep inside, we're terrified
We try and try, to fill the time
Even if we make it big, we all gotta die

The puzzle is blank, it seems
piece by piece - we never see
What we're tryin' to put together
Every day an offering at
the alter of our choosing
God or money, pain or pleasure

We all gotta die, we all gotta die
deep inside, we're terrified
We make up lies just to by
The truth is really simple, we all gotta die

Squeeze my hand when it hurts
Hope it don't get any worse
I can't bear to watch you suffer
We are born as pure as snow
triage nurses, all alone
Tasked to tend to one another

We all gotta die, we all gotta die
deep inside, we're terrified
No one will love us, so we hide
Even if we find someone, we all gotta die
Can't say that I understand, understand why
One thing we have in common is, we all gotta die
