lyrics

It's nice to drive when there's nobody else on the road
There's no need to go that fast so I'll take it slow
Cut down every pound from this weight on my wings
Somehow I don't seem to feel anything

I close my eyes when I get to the light
Open up my arms, there's no need to fight
There's no day and night, I'm backwards in time
My skeleton's screened, I feel nothing inside
Everything's white and it all just seems right
There's nothing to fear, no reason to hide
In the back of my mind, I hear myself cry
"Will this be the day I die?
Will this be the place I die?
Will this be the way I die?"

Gotta pay attention cause this is the final street
Make one wrong move and who the hell knows where I'll be?
I'm just a young man alone and out at sea
I look in the mirror, the old man's what I see

I close my eyes when I get to the light
Open up my arms, there's no need to fight
There's no day and night, I'm backwards in time
My skeleton's screened, I feel nothing inside
Everything's white and it all just seems right
There's nothing to fear, no reason to hide
In the back of my mind, I hear myself cry
"Will this be the day I die?
Will this be the place I die?
Will this be the way I die?"
