Lyrics
i want to die of natural causes
no note left behind me
eyes wide open when they find me
fully dressed, underestimated
i've no good to leave behind
only debt, pencil scratchings
take whatever you're attached to
i won't need it where i'm going
may my body dissolve properly
these hands, once made for labor,
may they fertilize a pea-vine
grasping forever skyward
this brain once hummed with pulses
may it feed something fungal
or sink into the mantel
uploaded with the network
may my heart's course be more tragic:
it's particles, may they wash up
on one shore, then the next
'til it's searched the world over
through a trillion seasons seeking
when the world has finally crumbled,
may my heart set its course
for a distant constellation
in this way, ad infinitum
until the universe collapses
in this way, ad infinitum
until a universe is born
in the last days may my heart be there
as the universe is dying
in the first days may my heart be there
as a universe is born
in this way ad infinitum
through a trillion universes
i want to die of natural causes
eyes wide open when they find me
fully dressed, underestimated
staring through the ceiling
