lyrics

I like to think that death is just some guy who’s doing his job We’ll call him Brendan
Sometimes he gets tired
But still shows up and does the work
Go get ‘em Brendan
I don’t know if we’d know
How to put meaning into things if not for Brendan
What good is a journey if the journey’s all beginning and no ending?

I know it’s late, but I hope work was good today
I’m sure it's hard, I’m sure it slowly eats away at you but You try your best and then life gets in the way
Brendan I’m grateful, that's all I’m trying to say
Brendan

I like to think that God is just a woman overworked
Let’s call her Caitlin
Constantly assessing why and which of all us sinners will be saved
I think she’d lose her mind
Or at least lose her sense of time if not for Brendan
She takes comfort in the context of each moment being precious ‘cause it fades

I know its late, I hope work was good today
I’m sure it's hard, I’m sure it slowly eats away at you but You try your best and then life gets in the way
Brendan I’m grateful, that's all I’m trying to say


Brendan
Brendan babe
I hope work was good today
I’m sure it’s hard
I’m sure it slowly eats away at you But if you quit
I’m not sure how I’d be ok Brendan I’m grateful
That’s all I’m trying to say
