lyrics

I went to my brother’s birthday party and I couldn’t relate to anyone
We ate Thai food and I pretended to be okay
All his friends were really nice but I couldn’t have felt more detached
At least my brother was happy to see me

I’ve been meeting this girl for coffee and I can’t tell if we’re dating or not
We spent time at The Only yesterday and she told me how she helped this junkie get to the hospital
She’s very nice and it’s easy to feel loved by her
But I don’t know why I waste time looking for love

David Bowie died and gave us Blackstar and it’s fucking beautiful
I’m obsessed with this album and his expression (and his ability to make peace with death)
When I listen to it and it really hits me I shiver, and my head shoots back
He’s given me hope for my life by turning his death into a piece of art

Last night I dreamt that I killed my cat and it was fucking weird
I just kept stabbing him in the gut
When I woke up I hugged him and told him I loved him

One of my best friends is falling apart
He’s talking about killing himself and things even worse then that
And I don’t want to see him pull some Jeffrey Dahmer shit
But I’d be lying if I said I don’t sympathize

For the past month I’ve had this feeling like I’m going to die soon
I don’t know why
But I trust my intuition more than most anything so…
(I’m kinda scared)
And if I’m right then goodbye
