Brendan - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I like to think that Death is just some guy who's doin' his job

We'll call him Brendan

Sometimes he gets tired, he still shows up and does the work

Go get 'em, Brendan

I don't know if we know how to put meaning into things

If not for Brendan

What good is a journey if the journey's all beginning

And no ending?

I know it's late, I hope work was good today

I'm sure it's hard, I'm sure it slowly eats away at you, but

You try your best and then life gets in the way

Brendan, I'm grateful, that's all I'm tryin' to say

Brendan, Brendan

Brendan

I like to think that God is just a woman overworked

Let's call her Caitlin

Constantly assessing why and which of all us sinners

Will be saved

I think she'd lose her mind, or at least lose her sense of time

If not for Brendan

She takes comfort in the context of each moment being precious

'Cause it fades

I know it's late, I hope work was good today

I'm sure it's hard, I'm sure it slowly eats away at you, but

You try your best and then life gets in the way

Brendan, I'm grateful, that's all I'm tryin' to say

Brendan, Brendan

Brendan

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Brendan, babe, I hope work was good today

I'm sure it's hard, I'm sure it slowly eats away at you, but

If you quit, I'm not sure how I'd be okay

Brendan, I'm grateful, that's all I'm tryin' to say

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Brendan, Brendan)

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Brendan)
