I don't want to go home
Now I'm more confident than ever
Since everyone knows my name
All the parties got better
So now I'm sitting on the floor of a Parisian apartment
With a French girl talking bout philosophy
And I know deep down that it's here and now
Coz nothing's gonna last forever
No nothing's gonna last forever
No nothing's gonna last forever
No nothing's gonna last forever
No nothing's gonna last forever
Everyone thinks I've got a problem
Since everyone knows my name
That I'm irresponsible and rude
That I'll put the drugs in my veins
So now I'm sitting on the floor of a Parisian apartment
With a French girl talking bout reality
She says "No one really know what the future holds but we know
Nothing's gonna last forever
And no one's gonna last forever
And nothing's gonna last forever
And no one's gonna last forever
And nothing's gonna last forever
That's why I'm not scared of anyone
Coz nothing's gonna last forever
But you need to discover that feeling
Of the crushing highs and lows of ego
Where one minute you know you're the worst
And the next minute you know you're better
Than everyone in the room
But know that nothing's gonna last forever
And you're not gonna last forever
So nothing's gonna last forever
And you're not gonna last forever
So nothing's gonna last forever
As I was lying there on the sidewalk, I did not think about art at all.
I thought about people, I thought about life.
Yes, sure - sure
And that's why I like being close to my house, somehow that was comforting - even though it makes no sense, you know.
But no I wasn't thinking about art and I wasn't thinking about art as endurance, as immortality, you know?
I mean, we could talk about immortal artists of various kinds
and it can turn out that yes, some artists have created art that has really survived thousands of years and that's fantastic
but experientially, for them, they are dead. They are gone. They are not experiencing that.
These are true things.
And thank goodness for them. I really feel. And you hear me assuring you that oblivion is freedom.
They are dead, they are gone. No one lasts forever.
