lyrics

The impending mortality awareness society
Meets twice a week
Do or die, ‘cause time is of the essence
So they gather in its presence

They won’t refer to last week’s minutes
They are now gone
Goodness knows, there is no rewinding
It’s the sentiment they keep finding

Every membership vote is unanimous
To reject regret
When asked they say, “thievery is limiting”
They check their bucket lists for the next thing

In pairs they share their fears out loud
Things that will never come
They keep themselves accountable
Remind each other how fear is wasteful

At the end of each meeting they huddle up
Off into the week they say good luck
Do what you can and it will be enough
Tell everyone who should know that you love them

The impending mortality awareness society
Meets twice a week
And you’re all welcome, ‘cause time is of the essence
More than finishing a sentence
Of penance and repentance
Births, funerals and weddings
