momentary epiphany

when i look out to the stars

and confront my own mortality

i'm overwhelmed by desire to live

to do something more

to give

but time is short and i'll soon be dead

or living in my uncle's pool shed

i get scared and i start to cry

then i go to my room and get high

i get high

when i look back at history

on the shoulders of giants i see

we are standing you and me

we must not waste this opportunity

but just look at the shape i'm in

i wouldn't even know where to begin

i've been living so long in sin

i think i'll go and get high again

high again

every moment we begin

every moment we begin

every moment we begin

every moment we begin

every moment we begin

every moment we begin

then we go get high again
