Will & Testament Lyrics

You don't need

To say anything

All I want is to see you right here

And I'll follow

Where everything is turning upside down

Will you come

Just stay right next to me

The constant misfit

With his misanthropic wishlist

Hang the holly

All he wants for Christmas

Is to stop the haunted visits

But I'm not optimistic

Because the clock is ticking

And dawn is drifting farther

In this post-apocalyptic Gothic Gotham City

My thoughts are spinning,

Watch me switch the topic

On these busy bodies

Just acknowledge you're not listening

And I won't bother talking

But I can't stop my heart from singing

But my bobber's sinking

I never caught a compliment when I've gone fishing

But they've cast me out for all my oddly awkward thinking

I pause a minute,

Taking stock of all that's missing

Wake and make the bacon and the coffee,

Go to work Do the laundry, wash the dishes,

Rinse, repeat

Box me in a coffin, locked in prison

Caught in the monotony we call existence

I'm crossing bridges

But I've also followed rivers Off of waterfalls

And fallen victim to the frost

No, I'm not the strongest swimmer

But I've survived the longest winters of my life

With a fire inside to calm the shivers

Finding solace, not a god, but quantum physics

I holler, ollie, ollie, oxen-free

Cause y'all are obviously quitting on me

While the audience just gawks like, are you finished

You don't need

To say anything

All I want is to see you right here

And I'll follow

Where everything is turning upside down

Will you come

Just stay right next to me

I take a litany of pills to fill the pit in me

I am the epitome of ill

and still they're sick of me

And this disease that kills

Till I am infinitely nil

Riddled with this guilt

From my deficiencies

Running out of sympathy

She's giving me the chills from cold stares

It's no mystery that she'll be rid of me

This old man, how brittley I'm built

With no utility or skill,

And no chance, or ability to heal

Pushing up this wheel

Up the Sisyphean hill

Listen to the shrill symphony of drills

Knitting me a quilt

From chapters of my life

But the stitching isn't silk,

And it's tearing at the seams

And it would seem

That all my dreams of being seen and heard were just absurd

I milked it all for what it's worth and got my just desserts

Too dumb to learn

Cause it just occurred to me that I am undeserving of love

I must have earned literally zilch

And have to come to terms with the fact

That I'm no different from a ilk

Hilt sticking from my back,

Head spinning like a mill

Wilting like a plant on a widow's windowsill In the sun,

Wishing I was wanted

While they're living for the thrill

Sinking to the bottom of a bottle of a whiskey in a swill

Split the bill, money in the till

Spilling on the concrete

For the missing written living will

You don't need

To say anything

All I want is to see you right here

And I'll follow

Where everything is turning upside down

Will you come

Just stay right next to me

You don't need

To say anything

All I want is to see you right here

And I'll follow

Where everything is turning upside down

Will you come

Just stay right next to me
