about

This song is about coming to terms with your own mortality

lyrics

I was once
young and reckless,
faithful and strong,
filled with light
I had a love,
a sense of wonder,
I held it lightly
in my hands

Now I’m old, feelin’ useless
and the fear comes thick and fast
All I want, I want you to know this
I was young like you once in the past

Days I sit
I sit and wonder
where it all went
those days I cry
I had a love
that filled me up inside
made me feel blessed
to be alive

Now angels come, they collect me
And lift me up to the skies
All I want, I want you to know this
I was young like you once upon a time

There was a light in me and it burned so bright
I never knew that light could die
Now the colours fade and the light grows dim
I’m realizin’
that it’s over

For what it’s worth,
this life I’ve lived
I took it all in my stride,
fuck it, no regrets
For what it’s worth,
the fails and wins,
if I had to do it all again,
I wouldn’t change a thing

Now that it’s over

There was a light in me and it burned so bright
I never knew that light could die
Now the colours fade and the light grows dim
I’m realizin’
that it’s over
