[ Featuring Painfully ]
I was a million miles away
It's an overused cliche
I had been looking at stars all night
They were all only tail lights
I had conducted a four part symphony
The orchestra only visible to me
Such beautiful music only I could hear
But as I rounded the bend they disappeared
When you got nowhere to go
You can watch the world go by
Don't waste the time you have here
Remember memento mori
I passed through another town
Didn't seem to be a living soul around
I thought about the other day
When we were on our holiday
But then again that was ninety-nine
Where have I been for all this time
Have I wandered around aimlessly
Have I been in touch with reality
When you got nowhere to go
You can watch the world go by
Don't waste the time you have here
Remember memento mori
I was on the road again
Don't know where I'd been
I was feeling kind of lost
On the sea of life I'd been tossed
I didn't know my destination
I didn't know my past location
Where would I come to be
When I got there would I have the key
When you got nowhere to go
You can watch the world go by
Don't waste the time you have here
Remember memento mori
