Lyrics
Sometimes when I think about it
It doesn't make any sense
I mean, I'm alive
And I plan to be
Beyond another seventy years
Time waits for no one
Not even for God
We're only immortal for a limited time
Someone said we were only born to die
Someone said there's a meaning with it all
I love the world and I barely believe
That I will leave it for good one day
Someone said my religion is the way
Someone said don't try to say
That you are not afraid
No, I refuse to let the angels take me away
I have thought everything
What heaven and hell is about
The big sleep is the only thing that's for sure
When we're all gonna face it
Something we have to endure
Dreamers say the time will come
When the way to stay alive
That means science will finally reach its goal
A no forever lasting life
I love my life
And it's not hard to hear
That one day
All I am will disappear
I have seen grief
And what it does to you
The day will come when I will lose
What I was made of
I tried to imagine what it would be like
But the thought is too unreal
So it's filtered out
I'm so afraid that I won't have the chance
To tell the ones I love
How I really feel inside
I hide my emotions for far too long
I am so afraid to lose you all
That's the essence of this song
Am I the only one
That's dreamed that hell
Is to be left alone
To live without their special someone
To feel like a king that lost his throne
Have you ever seen the dying?
Touched the fading one?
The last time I saw the queen of nostalgia
She was basically already gone
Time waits for no one
Not even for heroes
Love will have its way
And we have to follow
Someone said it might be true what he said
Someone said I will be able to freeze
The frame of what you are today
I have no wish to be young forever
I just don't wanna die
Someone said our souls will live again
I say the only one that I wanna be is me
No, I refuse to let the angels take me away
I have thought everything
What heaven and hell is about
The big sleep is the only thing that's for sure
And we're all gonna face it
The big sleep seems forever
