lyrics

I almost didn't hear the phone,
even though it was in my hand,
it sounded just like
someone else's dream.
I was sitting there just trying
to think about death,
but I couldn't think of anything.
And Jon said,
"Come meet me at the Void,
because they're closing down for good,
and they're giving out drinks for free."
So I tried to stand
and then I really did stand,
I got my coat, got my wallet
and my things,
and I set out for the Void.

Well, the parking was a mess
but my car wouldn't start
so it was all the same to me.
and I had just about finally
cornered death
when the guy was checking out
my ID.
And inside people talked round and round
about politics
and art
and coupons that you can get for free.
But they only give them out
so that you'll spend more.
And then this guy started talking to me.
He said:

"If I could make you believe
that I believed in something
would you believe in me?
Because I don't like money
and I lost my faith
and I couldn't get into the Dead C
and it's so easy
to ignore someone who doesn't
have a cause,
because the cause is all we're dying to see,
the cause distracts you from
the Void that's there
in every moment
and in every thing."
