lyrics

why are we counting down to our deaths
when we’ve got so much life inside of us
just take a moment
sometimes the world presses its palm against the window
and things get a little bit rough
but I know it’s passing

cause my mother used to tell me
there is life beyond everything you lose
and my father used to tell me
right or wrong be proud of what you choose

now I am aware that there are people out there
who would kick me down and shoot me full of bullets
and they’re not going away
but I will remain, they can bare their teeth
but they can’t take the soul away from me
no I am not afraid

cause my brother used to tell me
do not fear death and he just might fear you
and my sister used to tell me
tread carefully and you will end up a fool

I love the sun as much as anyone does
it can make you feel like you will never die
and I love the feeling
but once in a while I like a thunderstorm to come along
remind us that we’re all just animals
regardless of everything

and my little brother mocked me
when I told him that rain could clear his head
but maybe somewhere down the line
he will sit and ponder all the things I said
