After two years of listening to this song a couple thousand times, I think I figured out the lyrics, for the most part "Life's short don't blink ya might miss it No one's saving me from the the incessant tickin' of the second hand Counting down 'til they're Diggin' a grave plot. After all, it is clockwork Someone dies and someone's born Another day, another way for us to mourn From the maternity ward to back of a crematorium And it's hard for me to see the point in anything When everybody's doomed. I've been told before "Time heals all wounds" I don't believe it for a minute. 'Cos the hands on the clock themselves attacking Just to seal another day away. "Carpe Diem" I barely got to meet'em Before they went and buried'em. And now I'll never see'em again Don't you dare take those moment for granted We've all got our limited time on this planet And no one lives forever. I'd love to entertain the notion That we've all got so much time to kill But the sad fact's that we've all got One foot in the grave from the moment we were born and time flies like a bat out of hell . Once we quit breathing Our hearts will cease beating The sun will keep beating The earth . Everyone, everywhere some day will die , when it comes time to fill a grave Darlin' don't cry , Because none of us exist on purpose , We're just hurled into this circus , But the tents are collapsing , And the ringleader's tired; And dead people all smell the same."
Holy shit thank you. Was thinking to message Jesse and ask for that last part of the first verse! Edit: Just edited my first tab on ultimate guitar. Has to be reviewed until changes are made

"Life's short
don't blink ya might miss it
No one's saving me from the
the incessant tickin' of the second hand
Counting down 'til they're
Diggin' a grave plot.
After all, it is clockwork
Someone dies and someone's born
Another day, another way for us to mourn
From the maternity ward to back of a crematorium
And it's hard for me to see the point in anything
When everybody's doomed.
I've been told before
"Time heals all wounds"
I don't believe it for a minute.
'Cos the hands on the clock
themselves attacking
Just to seal another day away.
"Carpe Diem"
I barely got to meet'em
Before they went and buried'em.
And now I'll never see'em again
Don't you dare take those moment for granted
We've all got our limited time on this planet
And no one lives forever.
I'd love to entertain the notion
That we've all got so much time to kill
But the sad fact's that we've all got
One foot in the grave from the moment
we were born and
time flies like a bat out of hell
.
Once we quit breathing
Our hearts will cease beating
The sun will keep beating
The earth
.
Everyone, everywhere
some day will die
,
when it comes time to fill a grave
Darlin' don't cry
,
Because none of us exist on purpose
,
We're just hurled into this circus
,
But the tents are collapsing
,
And the ringleader's tired;
And dead people all smell the same."

there's nothing like scream-singing along "EVERYONE EVERYWHERE SOMEDAY WILL DIE" out your car window for everybody to hear.
