Everyone's afraid of their own life.
If you could be anything you want I bet you'd be disappointed.
Am I right?
No one really knows the ones they love.
If you knew everything they thought I bet you'd wish that they'd just shut
Up.
Well you were the dull sound of sharp math when you were alive.
Not ones gonna play the harp when you die.
And if I had a nickel for every damn dime I might have half the time.
Do you mind?
Everyone's afraid of their own life.
If you could be anything you want I bet you'd be disappointed.
Am I right?
It's hard to remember we're alive for the first time.
It's hard to remember we're alive for the last time.
It's hard to remember to live before you die.
It's hard to remember that our lives are such a short time.
It's hard to remember what it takes such a short time.
It's hard to remember to live before you die.
It's hard to remember.
My mom's god is a woman and my mom she is a witch.
I like this.
My hell comes from inside comes from inside myself.
Why fight this.
Everyone's afraid of their own life.
If you could be anything you want I bet you'd be disappointed.
Am I right?
If you could be anything you want I bet you'd be disappointed.
Am I right?

Up.
Well you were the dull sound of sharp math when you were alive.
Not ones gonna play the harp when you die.
And if I had a nickel for every damn dime I might have half the time.

It's hard to remember we're alive for the first time.
It's hard to remember we're alive for the last time.
It's hard to remember to live before you die.
It's hard to remember that our lives are such a short time.
It's hard to remember what it takes such a short time.
It's hard to remember to live before you die.
It's hard to remember.
My mom's god is a woman and my mom she is a witch.

"And if I had a nickel for every damn dime
I�d have half the time, do you mind?"
Ever hear of the expression "Being nickle and dimed?". He is saying that he has been nickle and dimed out of his time. He does an eloquent job of it too.
Just throwing in my two cents (pun intended).
The line about not knowing the ones you love is so true. Can you imagine how fucking maddening it would be if you somehow had mind reading powers? All those trivial and unedited thoughts. The people we think know so well would seem like completely different personalities.
Anyway, I could go on and on but a lot of other people already summed up most of my thoughts on the lyrics. There is one line that is especially meaningful for me though,
"My hell comes from inside, comes from inside myself
Why fight this?"
When you feel like life isn't worth all the shit it gives you, you just have to remember that it's all in how you deal with it.
It's hard to remember, it's hard to remember
We're alive for the first time
It's hard to remember were alive for the last time
It's hard to remember, it's hard to remember
To live before you die
It's hard to remember, it's hard to remember
That our lives are such a short time
It's hard to remember, it's hard to remember
When it takes such a long time
It's hard to remember, it's hard to remember
simply amazing. Isaac Brock is a fucking genius.

I just thought that that was so witty, and it turns out it was just in my head. xD
