"Life (Everybody Dies)" lyrics

"Life (Everybody Dies)"

There's something that I'm feeling
When I look you in the eyes
Like maybe I'm not evil
I'm just sensitive to light
But when I watch you leave
It comes back creeping in my mind
That everything means nothing baby
Everybody dies

You defend your enemies
And I offend my friends
So you try to fix my sentences
That don't make any sense
You've left your best impression
On every blessing that you've met
And you haven't fully realized
That one day they'll all be dead

Sometimes I'm so standoffish
That's not really who I am
The truth is when I see you
I just wanna hold your hand
And I know I'm pushing thirty
But I don't feel like a man
Lucky everything means nothing
It's my flawless master plan

And I dream about these moments
Every hour of every day
When I'm high enough
To think of something honest I can say
So I walk around with headphones on
And teach myself to pray
'Cause everything means something
Until that feeling fades away

I'm sure you could do better
With a million other guys
But I can tell you think I'm kinda pretty
When I smile
If you leave me empty-hearted
Then there's no reason to cry
'Cause everything means nothing baby
Everybody dies
Everything means nothing all your life
