Thoughts of a dying atheist
Lyrics
eerie wispers trapped beneath my pillow
won't let me sleep, your memories
And I know you're in this room
I’m sure I heard you sigh
Floating in-between where our worlds collide
It scares the hell out of me
And the end is all I can see
It scares the hell out of me
And the end is all I can see
And I know the moment's near
And there’s nothing we can do
Look through a faithless eye
Are you afraid to die?
It scares the hell out of me
And the end is all I can see
It scares the hell out of me
And the end is all I can see
It scares the hell out of me
And the end is all I can see
It scares the hell out of me
And the end is all I can see Extra information
Meaning
Matt: This song is inspired by The Smiths. And also a bit The Police. The singing is slow with a fast riff.
This song is about what an atheist thinks right before he's going to die. "I know you're in this room", the "you" is representing the death.
