In the Event Of... - Much The Same

Listen close even though I cannot speak

Will you help me with these mouths to feed?

Tell my mom and my dad I’m not dead yet

They got me tied down to this hospital bed

And I’ll still tell you everything is fine

Don’t hold your breath, I fear this may take a while

This is just evolution telling me it’s time

This is just evolution playing its hand, telling me it’s time

I still sleep with my front door unlocked

To give the medics a better shot

A familiar book sits beside my bed stand lamp

To check myself when I can’t say who I am

And I’ll still tell you everything is fine

Don’t hold your breath, I fear this may take a while

This is just evolution telling me it’s time

This is just evolution playing its hand, telling me it’s time
