How Many Blankets Are In the World? Lyrics

Everyone everywhere all the time
Waiting on a soft messiah
Everyone everywhere all the time
Waiting on a simple sigh of relief
And if you ever really died
I would be surprised
Life is long
Long enough to be mean
Life is short, short enough to mean something
To those who long
those who long for longer
The ebbing of your ebullience
Is evident in every dent
Come on let's kick some car doors in
You're what I'd hoped that I'd lost
Your wide eye'd hope that I'd lost
You're what I'd really hoped that I'd lost
How many blankets are in world?

And how many blankets are in the world?
And how many blankets have existed?
Is there an answer if we can't have it?
Life is long
long enough to be mean
Life is short
short enough to mean something
To those who long
those who long for longer
Tonight, tonight is on
The radio
And it's 1998
And I'm alone
But if it's Billy's song
It's mine to hold
You're what I'd hoped that I'd lost
Your wide eye'd hope that I'd lost
You're what I'd really hoped that I'd lost
