The Curse of Fatal Death

the curse of fatal death

let's not talk about that year

let's not talk about all our fears

let's not talk about the elephant

in the wreckage of what was quite a nice room

let's not talk about doom and gloom

let's close all the curtains

and open a bottle

insulate from the world outside

we'll stay warm

we'll stay safe

we'll stay up far too late

watching echoes of another life

we can sleep in our clothes if we want to

we can turn off all of our alarms

we can sleep in yesterday's makeup, yeah

we can do whatever we want

so let's close up our coats

and open the door

and think about stepping outside

it's cold

but we'll stay strong

as we walk from the equinox

in search of today's little cure

let's not talk about death, baby

let's not talk about war and greed

let's not talk about all the bad things

and the worse things

that may be

let's not talk about death
