i've got the mean blues
Life is giving me the mean blues again.
One day we are called by the name, the next we may lose our lives and be referred to as "the body" or "the corpse". People tend to assume that you no longer exist although you are still hot on the inside. Everyone starts mentioning just how nice and sweet you WERE.
The next phase is all about forgetting. They want to forget you died but they also forget the time you spent together and that you used to breathe. It's hard to forget you lived because death is still unnatural to us.
I'm sorry, i'm really sorry. I hate being obvious.
Smile wherever you are; people now cry when they think of all the wrong things they once told you.
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
