You're dead but the world keeps spinning
Take a spin trough the world you left
It's getting dark a little too early
Are you missing the dearly bereft?
Taking a flight, and you could be here tomorrow
Taking a flight, well, you could get here tonight
I'm gonna fly on down for the last stop to this town
- what?
I'm gonna fly on down then fly away
- well allright
get down
Takin' a spin through the neighbourhood
The neighbours scream
Whatcha talkin' bout?
'Cause they don't know how to let you in
and I can't let you out
what if I was not your only friend in this world
you take me where you 're going if you 're never coming back
I'm gonna fly on down for the last stop to this town
I'm gonna fly on down then fly away
get down
Why don't we take a ride away up high through the neighbourhood
Up over the billboards and the factories and smoke
I'm gonna fly on down for the last stop to this town
- yeah
I'm gonna fly on down and fly away on my way
Fly away
get down
Take a spin trough the world you left
It's getting dark a little too early
Are you missing the dearly bereft?
Taking a flight, and you could be here tomorrow
Taking a flight, well, you could get here tonight
I'm gonna fly on down for the last stop to this town
- what?
I'm gonna fly on down then fly away
- well allright
get down
Takin' a spin through the neighbourhood
The neighbours scream
Whatcha talkin' bout?
'Cause they don't know how to let you in
and I can't let you out
what if I was not your only friend in this world
you take me where you 're going if you 're never coming back
I'm gonna fly on down for the last stop to this town
I'm gonna fly on down then fly away
get down
Why don't we take a ride away up high through the neighbourhood
Up over the billboards and the factories and smoke
I'm gonna fly on down for the last stop to this town
- yeah
I'm gonna fly on down and fly away on my way
Fly away
get down

Its about the death of his Sister, Liz,An old lady who lived near him said she saw a ghost of a girl walk into his apartment when he was away at her funeral,The old lady didnt know his sister had just died,If you havent already,I strongly advise you to read his book 'Things the grandchildren should know' One of the best books ive ever read,He's had such a sad life
I also want to read the book.I'm really interested in the life of E.However,I don't think his life is sad.He is not only a lone wolf but also a lucky man with a beloved monster.I think he is one of those people who have found the truth of life and I really<br /> want such a person to be my best friend.I don't really know what kind of person E is,but sometimes when I listen to the song "things the grandchildren should know" I feel that I have the same kind of feeling that he has.
