“The train doesn’t stop at Humanville Station.
It's likely, rather, to swoosh right by.”
(Nick Bostrom)
The train won't stop.
The train won't stop here.
The train won't stop.
This train won't stop for me.
It might get a bit uncomfortable now, but
if you look into the future, what do you see?
That's correct, you’re all gonna die.
My train won’t stop
This train won’t stop for me.
But do you all want to die? (we don't wanna live with it)
Are you looking forward to a never ending nap?
An eternal rest? (we´re not happy about it)
A death? (we don't wanna live with it)
Do you accept this fate?
Can you just live with it? With death? (we’re not happy about it, but we have to live with it)
The disadvantages of death are obvious: (we have to live with it)
Unnecessary life insurance, (we live with it)
enormous funeral expenses.
Things you love go to unloved relatives. (things we love go to unloved)
or are even thrown away! (or even thrown away!)
(we don't wanna live with it)
If you are dead, you gonna miss everything!
i mean all the shit.
And it is boring.
And all those bad vibes,
think about them vibes
when somebody’s dying.
Do you really want to accept this cruel way of doing things?
As a law of nature?
Technology will save you!
Do you really think that this is the end of evolution?
Evolution,… technology will save us!
Living forever, could it work for you? it could work for me. (Yippie! Yay!)
Living forever, could it work for you? it could work for me. (things can only get better)
Living forever, could it work for you? it could work for me. (anything that can get better can get worse)
Living forever, could it work for you? it could work for me.
at least in the first thousand years or so
I’m sure it won’t be boring, we will find something to do
I thought I wanna be with you forever
but I guess I found somebody new
thousand years is a long time
is a long time
This train won’t stop.at Humanville Station.
this s´train wont stop for me
ho stop for me!
This train won’t stop.at Humanville Station.
This train won’t stop for you and me.
I’m sure it won’t be boring, we will find something to do
I thought I wanna be with you forever
but I guess I found somebody new
thousand years is a long time
