Of Montreal - It's Easy to Sleep When You're Dead lyrics

It's easy to sleep when you're dead but you're unable to touch your loved ones, give them kisses or see them smile at you It's easy to sleep when you're dead but you give up your whole life's work And you can't revers the bad things that you did While alive you still have hope that when you die you are dead And you know for sure if it's better, if it's better, if it's better I hope it's better It's easy to sleep when you're dead Though you can't feel the warmth of summer, smell the flowers of spring, or drink cider in the fall It's easy to sleep when you're dead though it's too late to say the words you wanted them to hear when you didn't have the nerve You get to spend eternity thinking about your life Think of all the time that is. Eternity is forever, is forever, is forever. What will I do forever? At this time there is nothing you can change. You can only sit and watch and hope they understand It's easy to sleep when you're dead. Cause there isn't anything else to do but sleep. I feel sorry for the dead
