letra de memento mori (chameleon lounge, spokane) - will wood

[spoken]
…i dunno the point is, like
i’m somebody who spends way too much time in church bas-m-nts trying to be better to, like, begrudge anyone their beliefs, you know?
probably people can tell from my whole vibe i’m someone who has tried to find jesus and just hasn’t been successful yet
but at the same time i’m not sure that beliefs-
i don’t know
i don’t know if they can really save anybody
anyway, um
this is a song about death

[verse 1]
one day you’ll look up at the ceiling above
if you’rе lucky, you’ll be surrounded by the onеs that you love
when the lights in your eyes fade and life flashes by
one day you’re going to die

one day you’ll sleep, and you’ll never wake again
heaven, h-ll, nirvana, nothing — no one knows how it ends
rest in peace or pieces and won’t even know why
one day you’re going to die

[verse 2]
read your horoscopes, your palms and tarot cards
but either way your destination ain’t very far
you could drown, or choke, or burn, or be hit by a car
what doesn’t k!ll you makes you stronger
but something will eventually
one day, you’ll look back at the life that you lead
no more future left to fear that you’ll have the past to regret
but your worries will be over if you truly realize
one day you’re going to die
take it away, hands!

[piano solo]

[bridge]
so in the fabric of time, and in the vastness of sp-ce
a billion amounts to nothing in infinity’s face
at most, a couple generations will remember the ways
in which your life never mattered, so who cares if it’s a waste!?

[verse 4]
well, one day you’ll be not even a faint memory
no, at most, a ghost or falling leaf from your family tree
your legacy’s not yours to see, nor is your eulogy
and you’ll never know what it all means
but you’ll be at peace before you sleep if you just keep this in mind:
that everything and everyone goes with the passage of time
so whether it’s cancer, murder, or suicide…

[outro]
one day you’re going to die
no need to fear, ’cause when it’s
here you won’t be alive
try not to think about it but
one day you’re going to die
and there’s probably nothing after!
one day you’re going to die
so if you only have one chance, you oughta try your best to live as you like
one day you’re going to die!
[spoken]
not that that yolo sh-t has ever done me much good
you only get one life, and that’s super liberating
you only get one life and that’s a crushing responsibility
