[Verse 1] I'm older than my years So much younger than my fears The hour last was turned so many times
[Pre-Chorus] Destiny, it shuffles cards Which try to learn to play them Sometimes we get it wrong
[Chorus] I wanna live before I die The sweet and bitter taste To stand around the air So close to the flame With fire in my beds I know I must to try To live before I die
[Verse 2] I stay quiet in these rooms Drown in the great abbeys And only those who knew me Are the ones that I will miss
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
To live before I die To breathe this breath of life For never in a while How could I deny It wasn't worth the plain I know I must to try To live before I die
I say into the mystic Where nobody goes I'm safe when all within me Every scene will be exposed
I wanna live before I die To breathe this breath of life For never in a while How could I deny It wasn't worth the plain
