I honestly can't take credit for it, though. It's actually a line from an eclectic 1990s-vintage popular song called "Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth with Money in My Hand" by a band called Primitive Radio Gods.
Some folks might remember it from the soundtrack of the Jim Carrey movie "Cable Guy."
[Third Stanza]
Am I alive or thoughts that drift away?
Does summer come for everyone?
Can humans do what prophets say?
And if I die before I learn to speak,
Can money pay for all the days
I lived awake but half asleep?
I just had a epiphany moment from the soundtrack to "The Cable Guy"...
This is FR...there are plenty of guns...
...please shoot me now....
