We'll buy a house, the day before we're buried
And by themselves, words are just free noise
We've got our health, shame about the weather
That old guard are warming up the seats for someone else
And I turned left a street or two too early
And I take death way too personally
Most of us are lining up together
The queue won't stop 'til after we have found out what it's for
Part VII
And if my biggest hope is that we stretch the limits of our time
All this dwelling isn't helping
And I can cope with a wink down to the stalls, but I can see right through your smile
Up and over, stretched my hand to catch the fleeing ball
A little splash of glory if I dive
And maybe all the voices through the walls were really there
Maybe they were echoes that survived
And such bad blood stops to serve us any sort of purpose
Still more and more the less there is of time
And this croak, the one that I affect now has engulfed me
On and on it falters through the lines
