---&---
I couldn't sleep, so I decided to transcribe the lyrics to "I Could Spend the Day," which I apparently hadn't done yet. (As a side note: I think I'm going to start focusing on one song in particular for, say, a month, in the hopes that a sustained effort will yield more results.)
In any case, I discovered two things:
1. There's an instance of internal rhyme in the second verse - "'Til deeper sleep arise."
2. The version on Into the Afterlife doesn't repeat the whole of the first verse before the fade out. It ends after "I could spend the day / Just laying here." The Zombie Heaven version repeats the entirety of the first verse before fading out with "Oh oh oh, I…"
I'm not sure if it's that much to remark on, but I like the parallelism between "I could spend the day / Just laying here / Sweet, beside you" in the first verse and "Would you spend the day / Just laying, sweet, with me?" in the third verse. (Although I'm not sure if my line breaks are in the correct spots there.)
