Here We Go




This is how it works, It feels a little worse, Than when we drove our hearse, Right through that screaming crowd, While laughing up a storm, Until we were just bone, Until it got so warm, That none of us could sleep, And all the styrofoam, Began to melt away, We tried to find some words, To aid in the decay, But none of them were home, Inside their catacomb, A million ancient bees, Began to sting our knees, While we were on our knees, Praying that disease, Would leave the ones we love, And never come again,

On the radio, We heard November Rain, That solo's really long, But it's a pretty song, We listened to it twice, 'Cause the DJ was asleep,

This is how it works, You're young until you're not, You love until you don't, You try until you can't, You laugh until you cry, You cry until you laugh, And everyone must breathe, Until their dying breath, No, this is how it works, You peer inside yourself,You take the things you like, And try to love the things you took, And then you take that love you made, And stick it into some, Someone else's heart, Pumping someone else's blood, And walking arm in arm, You hope it don't get harmed, But even if it does, You'll just do it all again,

And on the radio You hear November Rain That solo's awful long But it's a good refrain You listen to it twice 'Cause the DJ is asleep On the radio

I LOVE THIS! It's true. It's a cycle. A life loving cycle that no matter how much we love giving love and hate losing love, we still have to go through it. Keep it going kid.

She is fantastic. But it's with a K not a C in Spektor.
