Lyrics
I skipped a funeral that
I should have gone to I think
A paraphrase bouncing in my head
Better a house of mourning than your friends'
Chalked it up to being tired, what I chalk
Everything up to these days
It's not the same existential drinking
It's just so many long hours awake and
I've got all the time in the world
All the time in the world
Keep thinking of the guy who survived this
Who'll learn to sleep alone when everyone's left
He was at my wedding and graduation
And we're not that alike, I regret
A paraphrase bouncing in my head
About your vain life
About hard work and gladness
Your lot, youthfulness and bride
All returning to the God who gave it
Live dogs and dead lions alike
With all the things you had that literally burned up
And your empty house at night
All the time in the world
All the time in the world
All the time in the world
All the time in the world
If it came first, you'd find the time
You'd wear your best suit to mine
