"Everyone wants to live forever thinking that it'd be a lot better" is pretty straight-forward. No one wants to die, and we'd all think it'd be better if we never did. Coyne also suggests that maybe we do live forever, and implies reincarnation (if I've lived a thousand times before) which is a typical acid-head ponder. He also says, however, that though he, like everyone else, fears death, he would fear living forever even more (as living forever is the recurring theme of the song). In other words, wouldn't you rather die after leading a single satisfying life rather than living through countless disasters and deaths? I know I would.
