Of the crushing highs and lows of ego

Where one minute you know you're the worst

Interlude
[G] [A] [Bm] [G] [A] [Bm]
As I was lying there on the sidewalk, I did not think about art at all
[G] [A] [Bm] [G] [A]
I— I thought about people, I thought about life (You feel that people feel they could do better in life?)
[A] [Bm]
Yeah, yes, sure, sure
[G] [A] [Bm] [G]
But— and that's why I like being close to my house
[A] [Bm]
Somehow that was comforting, even though it makes no sense, you know?
[G] [A] [Bm] [G]
But, um, no, I wasn't thinking about art (Mhm)
[A] [Bm] [G] [A] [Bm] [G] [A]
And I wasn't thinking about art as endurance, as— as, uh, immortality, you know?
[Bm] [G] [A] [Bm]
I mean, we can talk about immortal artists of various kinds
[G] [A] [Bm] [G] [A] [Bm] [G]
And it— it can turn out that, yes, some artists have created art that has really survived thousands of years
[A] [Bm] [G] [A] [Bm]
And that's fantastic, but experientially, for them
[G] [A] [Bm]
They are dead, they are gone, they are not experiencing that
[G] [A] [Bm]
These are true things and thank goodness for them
[G] [A] [Bm] [G] [A] [Bm] [G] [A] [Bm]
I— I— I really feel, um, and you hear me assuring you that oblivion is freedom
