This was a triumph

I'm making a note here: huge success

It's hard to overstate my satisfaction

For the good of all of us
BbM7
Except the ones who are dead
F                    C           Bb       F
But there's no sense crying over every mistake
F                C               Bb         F
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake

And the science gets done and you make a neat gun

I'm not even angry

I'm being so sincere right now
Em              A                  D        Bm    D
Even though you broke my heart and killed me
Bm             D       Bm       D
And tore me to pieces
Bm              D      Bm    D       Bm
And threw every piece into a fire
Em                A
As they burned it hurt because
BbM7
I was so happy for you
F                   C           Bb        F
Now these points of data make a beautiful line

And we're out of beta, we're releasing on time
Gm                C                F                 Dm
So I'm glad I got burned, think of all the things we learned
B                      A      D    Bm   D
For the people who are still alive

Go ahead and leave me
Bm             D      Bm     D        Bm
I think I'd prefer to stay inside
Em                A               D        Bm    D
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you
Bm          D       Bm       D
Maybe Black Mesa
Bm         D        Bm      D       Bm

Em          A
Anyway this cake is great

It's so delicious and moist

Look at me still talking when there's science to do
F               C                 Bb           F
When I look out there it makes me glad I'm not you
Gm                  C             F              Dm
I've experiments to run, there is research to be done

I'm doing science and I'm still alive

I feel fantastic and I'm still alive

And while you're dying I'll be still alive
                Bm          D         Bm     D
And when you're dead I will be still alive
