Do You Realize – That Everyone You Know Someday Will Die?
From the Flaming Lips website, where I have been listening to this song every once in awhile. Its one of those songs that has a perspective to it. “Existentialist” is the word I have heard to describe it, but realist is the word that comes to my mind. For as caught up in the petty things of the world we seem to get, I appreciate the perspective of the song.
And no, I’m not turning into one of those webloggers that posts lyrics and bemoans life. . . just enjoying good music.
Do You Realize?
Do You Realize – that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize – we’re floating in space –
Do You Realize – that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize – that everyone you know someday will die
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes – let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It’s hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn’t go down
It’s just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
Do You Realize – Oh – Oh – Oh
Do You Realize – that everyone you know
Someday will die –
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes – let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It’s hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn’t go down
It’s just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
Do You Realize – that you have the most beautiful face
