TISM
14 Years - Then Death
[Verse 1: Ron Hitler-Barassi]
Back’s not good, heart’s not right
Left arm is sore, chest is tight
The ambos both are calm, skilled girls
The defibrillator’s cord uncurls
Its paddles are cold to the touch
The dead are only us
Are just us, are just us
Less love
[Chorus: Humphrey B. Flaubert]
Fourteen years of livin’, then death
That’s all that’s left
Fourteen years, then death
Fourteen years, all that’s left
Fourteen years of livin’, then death
That’s all that’s left
Fourteen years, then death
Fourteen years, all that’s left
[Verse 2: Ron Hitler-Barassi]
My smirk in the beginnin’
’Bout how my hair would be thinnin’
Has gone
Thirty years sincе then
And now it’s not pretend
Laugh at mortals, thе gods must
The dead are only us
Are just us, are just us
Less love
[Chorus: Humphrey B. Flaubert]
Fourteen years of livin’, then death
That’s all that’s left
Fourteen years, then death
Fourteen years, all that’s left
Fourteen years of livin’, then death
That’s all that’s left
Fourteen years, then death
Fourteen years, all that’s left
Yeah!
[Verse 3: Ron Hitler-Barassi]
Perfume! The smell of perfume
Is forgotten, and the shape of the room
And the sheets on her bed
Disappear forever from my head
All that’s left is merely thus
The dead are only us
And we are only them
We are only them
Plus love
[Solo]
[Outro: Humphrey B. Flaubert]
Fourteen years of livin’, then death
That’s all that’s left
Fourteen years, then death
Fourteen years, all that’s left
Fourteen years of livin’, then death
That’s all that’s left
Fourteen years, then death
Fourteen years, all that’s left
Fourteen years of livin’, then death
That’s all that’s left
Fourteen years, then death
Fourteen years, all that’s left
Fourteen years of livin’, then death
That’s all that’s left
Fourteen years, then death
Fourteen years, all that’s left
