Lyrics of 'Life The Curse' by Astronautalis

Everyone who's drinking, is already drunk or sleeping.
Everyone who isn't is just too political to talk to.
Another summer evening, and the city's barely breathing,
It just ain't the same, just ain't the same, without you.
Without you, without you, without you, without you, without you.
It just ain't the same, just ain't the same.

There ain't no magic in materials, the magic's in our words,
That we whisper in each others ears to make diamonds outta dirt.
There ain't glory in the silken things, the glory's in the hurt,
That can split your skin from end to end, down the center of the earth.

I said everyone who's drinking, is already drunk or sleeping.
Everyone who isn't is just too political to talk to.
Another summer evening, and the city's barely breathing,
It just ain't the same, just ain't the same, without you.

I wasn't joking bout my burial, the backyard's where i prefer,
But my landlord wouldn't like that, i gotta own a backyard first.
So i'll keep singing y'all these spirituals, and pray it lifts the curse,
That keeps me chasing ghosts of dreams from funerals to birth, in reverse.
In reverse, in reverse, in reverse, in reverse, in reverse.
That keeps me chasing ghosts of dreams from funerals to birth, in reverse.

Everyone who's drinking, is already drunk or sleeping.
Everyone who isn't is just too political to talk to.
Another summer evening, and the city's barely breathing,
It just ain't the same, just ain't the same, without you.
Without you, without you, without you, without you, without you.
No, it just ain't the same, just ain't the same, without you.
