   When you're standing on the side of a hill
                                       
Feeling like your day may be done

Here it comes

The strawberry smog
                        
Chasing away the sun
                                 
Don't let those precious moments fool you
                                 
Happiness is getting you down
                            
A rainbow never smiles or blinks
                                
It's just a candy-colored frown


                           
You were going on at half-past seven
                                   
Now it's going on a quarter 'til nine
                          
All the angels want to know
                                 
Are you lost or treading water?
                           
And you're going on your fifteenth bender
                           
But you've only got a matter of time
                          
Yes we've all got seeds to sow
                           
Not everyone's got lambs to slaughter

                  
When the night wind starts to turn
                
Into the ocean breeze
                     
And the dew drops sting and burn
                   
Like angry honey bees
                                                                      
That is when you hear the song falling from the sky
                    
Happy yesterday to all
                    
We were born to die

                                           
Sometimes you're filled with the notion
                              
The afterlife's a moment away
                                                     
You want to tell someone the way that you feel
                                        
But then you ain't got nothing to say
                                           
You fight for freedom from devotion
                                       
A battle that will always begin
                                        
With somebody giving you a piece of advice;
                                        
By the way you're living in sin


                           
Now there's never gonna be an intermission
                           
But there'll always be a closing night
                          
Never entertain those visions
                                
Lest you may have packed your baggage
                           
First impressions are cheap auditions
                           
Situations are long goodbyes
                          
Truth so often to living dormant
                                
Good luck walks and bullshit flies

                         
When the headlights guide your way
                       
You know the place is right
                    
When the treetops sing and sway
                     
Don't go to sleep tonight

                                                                      
That is when you see the sign Luminous and high:
                                  
Tomorrow's not what it used to be
                                  
We were born to die
                                  
Happy yesterday to all
                                  
We were born to die
