Zen - And If I Die Tonight Lyrics

And if I die tonight
Will I make it to the cover of Time
Will you see me on a platform newsstand
Will you always come up short ten cents
And will they put me on the TV
Will they say it didn't come easy
Word's out he wasn't all with it
Well god bless but he ruined the film script
Oh oh oh oh

And if I die tonight
Will I only miss the ride
Will I scream between the tides and
Will it carry unrequited
And do I laugh at what's behind me
And do the silences remind me
Did I understand the punchline
Or did I run another stop sign
Oh oh oh oh

And if I die tonight
How long will I take to find
How many will come to cry and
How many will stop the fighting
And of my words will I last
Will something good come out of this sickness
Don't lie and say that I went fast
This is what comes of bearing witness
Oh oh oh oh

And if I die tonight
Will I touch a billion lights
Will I watch them all align and
Will I understand that time is
Nothing more than postcards
Sent from some distant shoreline
Washed up in a plastic bottle
One word and maybe that's all
Oh oh oh oh

And if I die tonight
Will I make it to the cover of Time
Will you see me on a platform newsstand
And will I see you
Will I see you there?
