Easy/lucky/free - (with Nick Zinner) Lyrics - Digital Ash In A Digital Urn - Bright Eyes

Did it all get real, I guess it's real enough 

They got refrigerators full of blood 

Another century spent pointing guns 

At anything that moves 

Sometimes I worry that I've lost the plot 

My twitching muscles tease my flippent thoughts 

I never really dreamed of heaven much 

Until we put him in the ground 

But it's all I'm doing now 

Listening for patterns in the sound 

Of an endless static sea 

But once the satellite's deceased 

It blows like garbage through the streets 

Of the night sky to infinity 

But don't you weep (don't you weep for them) 

Don't you weep (don't you weep) 

There is nothing as lucky 

Honey, don't you weep (don't you weep for them) 

Don't you weep (don't you weep) 

There is nothing as lucky, as easy, or free 

Don't be a criminal in this police state 

You better shop and eat and procreate 

You got vacation days then you might escape 

To a condo on the coast 

I set my watch to the atomic clock 

I hear the crowd count down til the bomb gets dropped 

I always figured there'd be time enough 

I never let it get me down 

But I can't help it now 

Looking for faces in the clouds 

I got some friends I barely see 

But we're all planning to meet 

We'll lay in bags as dead as leaves 

All together for eternity 

But don't you weep (don't you weep for them) 

Don't you weep (don't you weep) 

There is no one as lucky 

Honey, don't you weep (don't you weep for them) 

Don't you weep (don't you weep) 

There is nothing as lucky, as easy, or free 

Or free, or free, or free 

There's nothing, there's nothing, there's nothing...
