So Many Ways to Die

There are so many ways to die

 
Maybe it will be on a hot sunny day
Maybe it will be when I'm weathered and grey
Maybe it will be from a car accident
That I didn't see coming from a mile away

 
Or maybe it will come for me in my sleep
Maybe it will leave me lost in a dream
Maybe it will be from sickness and disease
That will take me down, bring me to my knees

 
And I may never know just how it all goes down

 
It's like a bullet to the head/ A knife right through the chest
There are just so many ways to die
It's like a noose around your neck/ A fatal heart attack
There are just so many ways to die
So many ways to die


Maybe it will happen in the freezing night
Maybe it will derive from a homicide
Maybe there won't be any signs of a fight
And it will go down by way of suicide

 
And I may never know just how it all plays out

 
It's like a bullet to the head/ A knife right through the chest
There are just so many ways to die
It's like a noose around your neck/ A fatal heart attack
There are just so many ways to die
So many ways to die

 
And no one really knows how their story fades out

 
It's like a bullet to the head/ A knife right through the chest
There are just so many ways to die
It's like a noose around your neck/ A fatal heart attack
There are just so many ways to die
So many ways to die
