Last Will and Testament

[Verse 1]
I have lived a life that thrives on beautiful mistakes
The guarantee of death confirms the urge to celebrate
You ran rings around the ones who nurtured discontent
Now we hang suspended in my last will and testament
I have courted chaos, found destruction suits my mood
Played the school yard villain who beats himself so black and blue
Let it be known that desperation's a most unhealthy bend
So lie with me once more in my last will and testament

[Chorus]
When I am old, don't put me on a machine
Just run your fingers through my hair
Sing me slowly to sleep
Bright is the morning
When you know it is time to go
Neither above nor down below
I don't believe in a grand design
And I'll be here with you long after I die
I'll be here with you long after I die

[Verse 2]
Revelations, past transgressions, love burned 'til it's wick
In this hour of quiet confession, I hope I'm not too late
But I don't read the Bible, there is no need to repent
Now I hang suspended in my last will and testament
Scatter all the ashes on a sea that can't return
There's a light around the corner, you needn't be concerned
Even through your tears you make me feel so heaven-sent
So lie with me once more in my last will and testament

[Chorus]
When I am old, don't put me on a machine
Just run your fingers through my hair
Sing me slowly to sleep
Bright is the morning
When you know it is time to go
Whether above or down below
I don't believe in a grand design
And I'll be here with you long after I die

[Outro]
Here with you long after I die
Here with you long after I die
Here with you long after I die
Here with you long after I die
Here with you long after I die
Here with you long after I die
