No one's gonna miss me when i leave this town
No one's going looking gonna track me down
Anyway they tell me that we all go alone
So you can take it fast or you can make it slow
The sun was blazing slow across a northern sky
I looked above and wondered if he ever wonders why
Would he hang there frozen like a broken hand of time
Or would he settle down one night and never again rise
I just wanna be the one who's choosing when i go
Everybody else I know is losing in the dice roll
I know that you're gonna have excuses you'll tell me no
But i know...
The woodland has a rhythm and it teems in my veins
But life's a lazy habit that i'm ready to break
So i built a mausoleum out of plastic and pride
And i won't leave a name for the birds to eulogize
At night i tune the radio to ease my brain
Turns out all along there was an angel listening
So i sent her with a message for her god in the sky
I said darling you can tell him that i'm ready to fly
I just wanna be the one who chooses...
I keep a little journal though i don't know why
I guess maybe i thought i'd find some answers in these lines
Maybe i'm gonna see 'em right before i die
Or maybe you can find 'em in the mummy's eyes
I just wanna be the one who's choosing when i go
Everybody else I know is losing in the dice roll
I know that you're gonna have excuses you'll tell me no
But i know...
