I was at a funeral the day I realized
I wanted to spend my life with you
Sitting down on the steps at the old post-office
The flag was flying at half-mast
And I was thinkin' bout how everyone is dying
And maybe it's time to live
I don't know where we're going
I don't know what we'll do
Walked in to the Thrif-tee
saw the man with the hollow eyes
who didn't give me all my change
but it didn't bother me this time
cos I know I've only got this moment
and it's good
I went to the gas station
Old woman honked her horn
waiting for me to fix her car
I don't know where we're going
I don't know what we'll do
Laying in bed tonight I was thinking
and listening to all the dogs
and the sirens and the shots
and how a careful man tries to dodge the bullets
while a happy man takes a walk
And maybe it's time to live
