Lyrics:
I’ve been ‘normal’
I’ve been ostracized
I’ve watched through a window
As my young self dies
I’ve been popular
With all the popular guys
I gave them punchlines
They gave me warning signs
I look okay
In the magic hour
In the right light
With the right amount of power
And I’m okay
With the life of the sunflower
And I’m okay
With the life of a meteor shower
So say what you will
Go on (Say what you will)
You’re gonna do it anyway
Go on
Just (Say what you will)
You’re gonna do it anyway
Go on
Just (Say what you will)
Go on
You’re gonna do it anyway
Say what you will
I can find my way
With no superpowers
I can take my place
Without becoming sour
I might not make
All those psychopaths proud
‘Least I can see the faces
Of the smaller crowds
And I’m okay
I can drive myself
I’ve been sobered
By time on the shelf
And I’ve been ‘normal’
I’ve been ostracized
Like a comet
Blazing through an empty sky
So say what you will
Say (Say what you will)
Say what you will
Say (Say what you will)
So say what you will
Say (Say what you will)
Say what you will
Say what you will
Say what you will
Say (Say what you will)
(Say what you will)
(Say what you will)

    • @@thembe_xagain, I hate to break it to you but your brain runs on electrical signals generated by the motion of electrons in your brain. When you die those electric signals stop firing. SO when you die there's NOTHING. No heaven, no hell, no god. Just nothing. Exactly like how it felt before you were born. Thats how life works. Memories are stored in neurons in the brain. Once the brain dies. You are dead. And that's it. Live for yourself not for a fake religion.

His recent album, Friends That Break Your Heart, is beautiful. Probably the best album of 2021 and might be my favorite album of his, surpassing Colour In Anything.
