You will find no new ways to forgive yourself,
So let's work to forget your name.
It’s over, it’s over, it’s over.
And I’ll hear you reap what you’ve sown, pay no matter what you’ve known
Or who you once thought you could save
As were you a thief you will be robbed of such believe
Did you fail to recognize that impulse in your body?
And still you’ll have the nerve to ask relief, my friend
The nerve to ask of relief.
So go on, write your monument to loss, you built a pillar of your heart
You climbed a cross, asked us to tremble when you came
But as you hang up there, are you dead, or just dying?
You’ll have to let us know whichever you decide.
The nerve, the nerve
So I’m asking, will there be a final service?
What should I wear, how will we celebrate the man?
He was vain, he was tired. He often made me laugh.
His contradictions were too subtle to sustain.
The nerve, the nerve
