When I Die Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I die
I want to travel light
Or rinse my hands
So I catch the satellite
Don't cry
I promise that I'll get it right
I've been practicing my whole life
[Verse 2]
When I'm fine
I become a different man
All these distances and abandoned light
In time, passing forces did collide
Into her arms of rot
And it was alright
[Outro]
Now I, I feel right
What would death steal that could harm me?
Now I feel right
In the darkest lair
I feel right again
When I die
I want to travel light
Or rinse my hands
So I catch the satellite
Don't cry
I promise that I'll get it right
I've been practicing my whole life
When I'm fine
I become a different man
All these distances and abandoned light
In time, passing forces did collide
Into her arms of rot
And it was alright
Now I, I feel right
What would death steal that could harm me?
Now I feel right
In the darkest lair
I feel right again

Zach has said this song was intended to be cathartic in nature, and was the first song written on the album ... intending to be powerful in its emotional evocation, etc...it's ironic and typical of him, to put a song at the beginning of an album that is about the end of life...very haunting and touching song
