Part I: (Sampled: blue orchids bloom through the city streets at night) Part II: (intro) i put new pills in to my body and now i'm wondering how i got here. (verse I) i'd come to you looking for answers, but now i can't, yr dying of cancer. (verse II) there's no way of knowing whether you'll be alive tomorrow, maybe i should go hide in my sorrows (chorus) i spent a year hiding out in the woods, i really wish that it could, help me understand, what kind of world would take you away from me, from me, from me, from me... Part III contains several vocal snippets from part II as well as ghost vocals from the Glass Beach songs, Glass Beach, and Orchids. Part IV is also an instrumental Part VI is a reprisal of parts I and II

and then it hit me one magic night while gazing out at the stars i realized i already had the answer i already ahve the power to do it people will think i'm crazy, but i see no reason why not to the idea to experiment and enter the afterlife, bringing back the people we miss any potential side effects or effect it might have on the living i am not responsible for for for for wouldn't you do the same?

Life as Anti-Matter: beneath the gaze of mother gaia where the living dare not tread that is where you'll find the dead lets put these rumors to bed i know it seems like we've already lost i know it seems like we'll never pay the cost but there's something i know for sure if we die and the planet burns we can live a better life without all this clatter we can live a life as anti-matter because we already know that nothing really mater anymore Now Entering: (repeated, garfield) now entering ghost city

you still can find the bodies buried but their souls they do not carry they've since left to move on to another life without you don't get me wrong, they miss you day after day, always wondering how they can be where they are, with you still here but you just have to remember you're still okay in the end in the end in the end in the end
