Infinite Ways To Die (Song A Day #1125)

sometimes i hate this human body
so fragile and perilous
to know that i at any moment
could up and die leaving all of this behind

sometimes it's great pain and pleasure
when you measure the day to day
but we're subject to shoddy workmanship
planned obsolesce and infinite ways to die
leaving all of this behind

and the tighter that you're clinging
the harder to let go
and the louder that you're singing
the more damage to your throat

sometimes the weight of living's heavy
when you know your faced with certain doom
sometimes it's just too much to carry
but then there's nothing you can do but try

we satiate all needs and urges
we are social creatures, who need to be loved
no one's immune and you can embrace it
keep your heart open to infinite ways to die
nothing you can do but try*

but sometimes i get angry
seriously pissed off
screaming at nobody
the pointlessness of it all

sometimes the straight and narrow message
can get so lost among the noise
two feelings mix in a single moment
unfettered happiness just as i'm poised to cry

we overrate our body's treason
there's no reason, it's just what is
we spend our days in sweet denial
but the early hours bring the infinite ways to die
just as i'm poised to cry

[Vsoma12]

I like the way he is looking up while singing. Try to imagine this song was addressed right to Death standing before him, unpaciently waiting to take his soul with him.
