Hoooray! The first demo on the album. This particular track has been uploaded a couple times before. So I'm not expecting this one to get more views than the rest. But, you never know. So okay, time for lyrics.

You were right I'm hangin' 'round because

Light and sound won't separate us from them

You were right I'm underground because

Slight of hand won't separate your body from the dirt you're standing on today

You're the good things yeah that's you...

You're the icing on the cake on the table at my wake

You're the extra ton of cash on my sinking life raft

You're the loud sound of fun when I'm trying to sleep

You're the flowers in my house when my allergies come out

You're the good things...

And help's not short when you're diggin' your grave

I'll help you dig it

So you're diggin' your grave now you're speakin' my language I'll help you dig it

This is so much better than the one on my ipod. Either mine is bad quality, or this is a different version?

It's alright to die, but you've gotta see death as it is... Go to truthcontest(.)com and read "The Present"

"Parasites" also gave me that kinda feeling. Like, at least something will be happy when I die. If I can, I'd like mo body to get eaten by insects when I die.

"It's Alright To Die" is the most beautiful name for a song I've ever seen. Seriously, for someone like me who's constantly obsessing over death and how shitty it will be to spend eternity in a void I actually teared up after reading that. This version is infinitely superior to the Everywhere version, even though I already fucking loved that song.

i feel u bro. thats really good! its great to hear that someone as young as you in this day and age is looking for older music or like music below the mainstream radar. i'm 20 and i discovered this song 2 years ago. i too love it i myself always look around for quality music, including if i'd have to try looking into older or more underground music and such, some soundtracks. i love music but i have nor respect for what the pop industry has been giving

i almost like this one better than the Everything version. im pretty new to this music being only 15 and kinda just stepping into the world of music, but this stuff caught my ear pretty quickly.
