Ideas for the Afterlife Lyrics by STATHI

Post-Truth

2020

If I were a leader, I’d make freedom cost
The price of a penny, so you’d forget all that you lost
And if I were a soldier, I would clean my gun
With the paper of my hometown, so they could read all that I’ve done
If I earned a paycheck, I’d send to my mom
Because she works for fucking nothing, just to please her corporate boss
If I could change the weather, I’d keep Nebraska free of snow
Because it’s those desperately long wintеrs, that made my dad move back home
And it’s my indеcision, that keeps me paralyzed in bed
I can live under the covers, in world inside my head
But I would hope to cling to, the beauty of a girl
The smoke inside her taste buds, and the powder in her curls
So, please, I said I’m fine
This is just a picture of my condition, I’m just flawed by design
I said don’t cry
I just want a simpler existence, My Ideas for the Afterlife
If I were skinny, I could handle harder drugs
Because like this I get so anxious, that my heart forgets to pump
And when I see my friends all, tuning twenty-five
I can visualize their futures, and it keeps me up at night
Because I still remember, that sweet Mexican boy
He would read about religion, and debate in his smoky voice
And if he taught me anything, he taught me how to live
Like a boy without a father, to find the man inside the kid
So please, I said don’t cry
This is just a picture of my condition, I’m just flawed by design
I said don’t cry
I could use some liquor and a hug now, My Ideas for the Afterlife
