Lyrics for ...While You're Alive

When you're a ghost When you're a ghost They'll sit around and talk about how they liked you the most When you're a dream When you're a dream I'll wake up to warm sun-rays that make me want to scream I wanna let you know while you're alive Because everybody loves you when you die But when it matters, they're not there, not there When love is dead When love is dead We'll remember gentle nudges keeping us in bed Or laughing at funerals, queasy at carnivals Listening to heartbeats slowing down as we keep growing old I wanna let you know while you're alive Because everybody loves you when you die But when it matters, they're not there, not there I gotta let you know while you're alive Cause I'll be a disaster when you die Chubby body, no hair, don't care And it's not like the love that they showed us on T.V It's a home that can burn It's a limb to freeze It's worry Love is worry Yeah
