lyrics

I do not know what it’s like to be like you,
And I do not care to be honest to tell the truth.
You’ll never be anything you’ve claimed to be,
In fact, you’ll never be much of anything.
I met an old man in the train station today,
He looked at me as if to say.
I feel alive,
For the first time in a long time
I’ll never die
No, I don’t think I’ve got the time.
The sun is out, it’s such a perfect day.
I don’t mind, it’s not too much to say.
Leave us alone if it’s not too much to ask;
You bring us down with all your talk about the past.
How great that you were, oh how great you always seemed,
You are just mad that life is not the way you dreamed it would be.
I met an old man in the train station today,
He asked me why I would run away.
I feel alive,
For the first time in a long time
I’ll never die
No, I don’t think I’ve got the time
The sun is out it’s such a perfect day.
I don’t mind, it’s not too much to say.
solo
Chorus
