So I've been thinking about dying, and everything that means I was driving home on the PCH when I heard my telephone ring And they said he was gone, he was a hero of our time And I couldn't help but wonder what they'd say about me when it's mine And it hit me like a damn grand piano falling from a four-story flat Maybe everybody dies and everybody don't come back So I'd like to make a difference, for I blink out of existence I know everything will change, and that's a fact So tonight, show me how to be here now So I've been thinking about outer space, maybe we should move there Just far away from LA, from the traffic jams and the polluted air And I've been thinking about flying, and how this plane can just go down And that nothing really matters if everything ended right now And then it hit me like a damn grand piano falling from a four-story flat Maybe everybody dies, and when they do they don't come back And though I'd like to make a difference, before I blink out of existence I don't wanna live my life afraid of that So tonight, show me how to be here now So tonight, show me how to be here now Oh tonight, show me how to be here now Yeah tonight, show me how to be here now
