My first Electro-dance song, and it's about death!

Semi-eclectic, semi-improvised, and semi-listenable. Try it!

I make music. Some think it's strange, others think it's strange. However, it just is because that's how it turned out.

Story behind the song

I wrote this song after reading a typo in Songwriter Magazine.

Lyrics

He passes away, everyday.
He can never live twenty-four hours.
It's hard to survive when you're not alive,
And the grave's got your name on it already.
He just fades away, always decay;
A never-ending casual stroll to the end.

Perpetual state of not being:
He passes away.
Perceptive state of not seeing:
He passes away.
He cannot be saved;
He drags himself to the grave,
And he'll never reach it that way.

He just turns to dust, eventual combust,
And he pulls out his hair, strand by strand.
He passes away to forget his day,
And to ignore the night.
He passes away, as if he wants to say
That we're better off not putting up a fight.

Perpetual state of not being:
He passes away.
Perceptive state of not seeing:
He passes away.
He cannot be saved;
He drags himself to the grave,
And he'll never reach it that way.

Is the only way to live forever
To always try to die?
You may think this man is clever,
But he'd rather not be alive.
Perpetual state of not being:
He passes away.
Perceptive state of not seeing:
He passes away.
