Premium Rat - deathwish

Sometimes I go to the store even when I don't need anything
Wander around aimlessly
At some point I'll leave with cigarettes or wine
Inching closer to the line shamelessly
Sometimes I go for a drive even when I have nowhere to go
And I don't put my seatbelt on
The sensors yell relentlessly that I'm in danger
But something about the sound feels so calm
And I don't have a deathwish, but maybe I'm lying
You can call me selfish, but we're all dying
And when you're small they drill it into your head
Always look both ways before you cross the street
But sometimes I walk before I can see
Like I'm daring the universe to surprise me
I don't have a deathwish, but maybe I'm lying
You can call me selfish, but we're all dying
Eat, clean, breathe, sleep
Everyday with these human needs
Contending with corporeality
To slowly wither would bring me serenity
And I don't have a deathwish, but maybe I'm lying
You can call me selfish, but we're all dying
Oh, aren't we all dying?
