You always said forever
But forever came too soon
When I see forever now
I see your tomb
Well
Forever came much later for you
In a one-eyed jug of 'shine
Well
I know your pain wasn't half as bad as mine
I can read the words written on the wall
But I need to hear you say it all
You know what's broke
You know what's thrown away
You know where hope is
And how it starts to break
And I don't know much
For sure
But when you hear my voice inside your head
You'll go
"Thank God he's dead"
Thank God he's dead
Thank God he's dead
Thank God he's dead
Thank God he's dead
Thank God he's dead
Thank God he's dead
Thank God he's dead
Well
Desire is just a fuckin' racket
And greed is just brand loyalty
What do y'all even want from me?
I'm spendin' all my energy just tryin' to breathe
Okay
That's you in five
That's me in three
A childless family
An army of one
A hung-over husband's song
Okay
