Like it’s a look into a soul of one of the most famous musicians of all time right before they’re about to die. He’s showing us that whatever we ever have had is fleeting and time comes for us all :(

I often wonder what elderly people feel when they think about how many of their former friends and foes are gone forever, how their current friends will one day go, and how they’re at the end of their life as well

I often hear that old people accept death pretty easily and aren’t too bothered by it. I mean, I see that with my mom when she shows me old photos and points out that like half of her friends are dead casually.

But still. I’ve accepted that death is inevitable, but something about the end of other things around me make me feel more uncomfortable than the thought of eventually dying. I suppose it’s dying last and being alone is the scary part.

Your first paragraph is one of the most terrifying thoughts of all time imo

Like of course we all die, but that level of introspection into the human condition just fucks me up big time
