The Absolute Best Feeling Lyrics by Joshua Bond

There’s Nothing in the Bushes

2021

[Verse 1]
You only get to realize that you're alive once
And it's the absolute best feeling you can feel
Well, everything is colorful, it's vivid now, it's wonderful
And all because I know it isn't real
[Verse 2]
You only realize that someday you will die once
And every day thereafter is a gift
Someday your bones turn back to oil, how soon our souls will turn to soil
It's a miracle that we get to exist
[Chorus]
I'll learn the names of all the termites that eat my wooden teeth
And I'll shake the tiny hands of all the worms that squirm beneath
And when I look down past the bug bites and my decomposing feet
Turning back into the earth from which I've grown
Oh, she'll whisper to me, "Darling, welcome home"
[Verse 3]
You only realize that someday you will die once
And your memories will wash off with the rain
All your history and all you feel and all you see it's only real in the organic matter of your brain
[Verse 4]
You only get to realize that you're alive once
Then somehow that day feels like the first
First you grow and then decay, the breeze will blow your bones away
Don't wait 'til then to realize what they're worth
[Chorus]
I'll befriend the fuzzy fungus blooming from my jacket pocket
And I'll smile at the maggots squirming 'round in my eye sockets
They're my brothers and sisters taught me there's no way to stop it
The expanding sun approaches 'til we're burned
She'll whisper, "Tell me darling everything you've learned"
[Verse 5]
You only get to realize that you're alive once
And it's the absolute best feeling you can feel
Such silly thoughts keep us awake, the important things are not at stake
I don't lose sleep 'cause I know I'm not real
[Chorus]
So I say let the angry bugs in my intestines wage their wars
And I'll watch the hungry beetles pick the scabs and peel the scars
And when I look back at this planet from the void between the stars
In the arms of some celestial source of time
She'll show me everything was bound to turn out fine
