mellow darkish pop n rock
exploring the multiverses sound by sound and word by word
Story behind the song
story behind the song: the meme "If you're ever sad, just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie", subsequent celebrity deaths and the extrapolation/exploration of the feelings of a common man/woman facing a similar fate
Lyrics
any day now
they're going to give me the bad news
no problem now
i've heard it at least once before
at least i got to live at the same time as David Bowie
growing old as those golden years came of age
at least i got to live at the same time as David Bowie
through those changes, angel, and perfect daze
any day now
they'll say there's nothing they can do
at least i got to live at the same time as David Bowie
got to hear how music was to be made
through a billion tears and the never ending glory
all those changes, angel, even the next daze
rivers that run weeping past the oceans of i'm glad
flowing over the reality rather than the sad
fortunes so misspent on fabrications not the truths
living for the moment when there's nothing else to do
at least i got to live at the same time as David Bowie
got to learn how music was to be played
through the passion years, the never ending stories
everything changes, angel, souls and saves
any day now
they're going to give me the bad news
any day now
they'll say there's nothing they can do
no problem now
i've heard it at least once before
no problem now
i'll live my life as i have always done
