about

a song inspired by a movie yet to be made.

lyrics

Button up! It's a quarter to five
In her bed you can't hide, time to trip, fall and die
Watch the light blast, life flash
Before your wide eyes
Try for goodbye cause you're leaving the first world

On the move feeling like you can fly
Then you hit the ground high, and you have a good cry
Number two plain, new game
Rules are unkind, find that on your mind is every one of the lost girls

John the Eternal One
Pays no mind to the setting sun
Disenchanted and one the run
From the love of the hired guns

John the infernal one
Lost his mind, then he had his fun
Will he ever fall in love?
Will he ever fall in love?
Will he ever fall in love?

Now your lost with a man on the beach
He got an ocean front desk, he's dismissing your grief
Your assignment, time spent
Causing relief, chief purpose is cagey but you know it's a tough line

Get a guide who looks like an old friend
Back when you were so young all the rules you would bend
Now a lady, shady
Gunning to send friend into the void, you'll see your murder was her crime

John the Eternal One
Chasing her cause she's on the run
On the trail of her smoking gun
She's got answers and he got none

John, his internal hum
Catches up under setting sun
Will he ever know the score?
Will he know what he died for?
Will they just call him a whore?

Spoken:
There is a certain feeling among us here in the afterlife that you, John, do not deserve to find what we refer to as the solution, the cure...

You will toil for an undisclosed amount of time, effecting change in your own soul before you can enjoy the soul of another.

They say life's a bitch. Apparently, for you, so is the after life...

Good day.

John the Eternal One
He's the man with the smoking gun
Battle's over, the war's not done
Cause he can be a better man

Oh Honey, ain't that the truth
He's a boy hid behind his youth
Will he ever be the one?
Trading all his clouds for sun?
Will he ever fall in love?
