Not Dying Today

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I read the memo Death got my name I said “return to sender” Try that game again I’m not built for quitting I’m all teeth and boots I’d trade three bad habits For one more heartbeat boost [Pre-Chorus] Call the doctor Call the moon I’m gonna stay here I’m staying soon I’ll wear duct tape halo I’ll drink pond water too If that’s what it takes Then that’s what I’ll do [Chorus] Dying isn’t part of the plan Dying isn’t part of the plan I’m staying alive By any dumb command Dying isn’t part of the plan Dying isn’t part of the plan I’ll chew the hard truth And bite back if I can [Verse 2] I tried a charm bracelet I tried a lucky sock I tried yelling “tomorrow” At a broken clock I bribed a small wizard With fries and a grin He said “sir, you’re a mess” I said “let me in” [Pre-Chorus] Call the doctor Call the moon I’m gonna stay here I’m staying soon I’ll sign a weird contract In crayon if I must You can keep the goodbye I’ll keep the dust [Chorus] Dying isn’t part of the plan Dying isn’t part of the plan I’m staying alive By any dumb command Dying isn’t part of the plan Dying isn’t part of the plan I’ll chew the hard truth And bite back if I can [Bridge] If forever is a joke Then I’m laughing loud I want my bones to outlast Every storm cloud I’ll wrestle fate in a parking lot With one shoe tied I’m not going out Till I’ve tried and tried [Final Chorus] Dying isn’t part of the plan Dying isn’t part of the plan I’m staying alive By any dumb command Dying isn’t part of the plan Dying isn’t part of the plan Bring the worst you’ve got I’m still gonna stand Dying isn’t part of the plan Dying isn’t part of the plan I’ll chew the hard truth And bite back if I can
