Keepin' on, keepin' on. The character is edging towards acceptance. All night gig yesterday so my voice is absolutely cooked. More Tom Waits vibes for your ears!
lyrics
In the pinewood arsenic frames
I’ll be laying there someday
Killing time, one could say
Silly rapture, lies in wait
It’s a wrap, my ticket’s punched
Christ ain’t payin’, we’re going Dutch
Regrets? Hell, I’ve got a bunch
Where I’m goin’, I’ve got a hunch
On the palest horse she rides
Moving lifeline’s ocean tides
My greatest love, my loving bride
I’ll be waiting, don’t you cry
There’s a lot I’m bound to miss
Summer sailing, and tender kiss
Building snowmen, and childish bliss
Still I’m lucky, got to see all this
When brother Gabriel calls me home
Ain’t no vicar, and they ain’t in Rome
Little truths in dusty tomes
Ain’t gon’ save you, we all die alone
