None of This Really Matters

Lyrics

Sorry to be late, I was busy tempting fate Guess that's always been my role And I've been walking to the beat of every funeral I meet It's been November in my soul I spent the winter tying knots, spent the summer getting lost 'Til I could not see the shore And I was chasing fame and love, turns out none of them's enough I do not want this any more I do not want this any more 'Cause none of this really matters None of this really matters None of this really matters any more Well my fear once filled the skies like a Red-winged blackbird cry But I'm done with that it seems Go ahead and light my funeral pyre, I've escaped more beds on fire Than I have had sweet dreams And I used to duck a punch, drink myself no longer drunk Now I'm running down the clock And there's a flag flying on my street, one of permanent defeat But I do not give a fuck No I do not give a fuck 'Cause none of this really matters None of this really matters None of this really matters any more No none of this really matters None of this really matters None of this really matters any more Well my country it's gone mad and every way it turns out bad Tell me again what it is you think you've won And don't sell me your cheap hope, I'll take a length of good, strong rope It'll serve me when time comes And we've drained the future dry and now we're eyeing up the sky Like there's time to save the race Yeah and there's nothing left to steal, we're pissing on the rear right wheel Like we're headed into space Like we're headed into space And from the island to the hills, got my own white whale to kill I'm still haunted by the ghost Yeah but I still hear the call, a Catskill Eagle in my soul Yeah and I got more than most Yeah, I got more than most Yeah, I got more than most 'Cause none of this really matters, none of this really matters, none of this really matters any more No none of this really matters, none of this really matters, none of this really matters any more In a world on fire, a world on fire, in a world on fire, a world on fire None of this really matters None of this really matters None of this really matters any more None of this really matters None of this really matters None of this really matters any more
