The Graveyard Near The House The Airborne Toxic Event

The other day when we were walking by the graveyard near the house you asked me if I thought
We would ever die
And if life and love both fade so predictably
We've made ourselves a kind of predictable lie
So I pictured us like corpses
Lying side by side in pieces in some dark and lonely plot under a bough
We looked so silly there, all decomposed, half turned to dust in tattered clothes
Though we probably look just as silly now

Bye, bye, bye, bye bye, bye to all this dogged innocence
I can't pretend that I can tell you what is going to happen next or how to be
But you have no idea about me
Do you?

It left me to wonder if people ever know each other
Or just stumble around like strangers in the dark
Because sometimes you seem so strange to me
I must seem strange to you
We're like two actors playing our parts
Did you memorize your lines? Cause I did
Here's the part where I get so mad
I tell you that I can't forget the past
You get so quiet now and you seem somehow like a lost and lonely child and you just hope that the moment won't last

Bye, bye, bye, bye bye, bye to all this dogged innocence
I can't pretend that I can tell you what is going to happen next or how to be
But you have no idea about me
Yeah, you have no idea about me
Do you?
