lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I was young I'd deny
Old age ever for me
But these days fate no longer hide
Too many friends have died

[Verse 2]
Face it, our end is nigh
One hundred years at best
And that's if no untimely death
Hard drive factory reset

[Bridge]
Yet something inside
Convinced we survive
My evidence - this life see afterlife

[Chorus]
Previous life, yes forget
But keep faith some place yet will reminisce reconnect

[Verse 3]
No more pretend I'm immune
From birth, death, disease, old age
This bodily dress ragged worn
Witnessed disintegration

[Repeat Bridge]

[Instrumental]
If only I could remember, I'd track you down and let you know I survived ... wipe those tears away

[Verse 4]
To be or not to be question
Mortal coil shuffle off
To dream no more, dust to dust, gone
It feels so real - final curtain

[Repeat Bridge]

[Repeat Chorus]
