About the song
An analysis of my emotional response to the concept of time.
Lyrics
I used to think that I would live forever,
As long as my eyes were wide i would never die,
But something's taken me by surprise,
23 years flashed before my eyes,

I need to press pause to remember,
Who i'm supposed to be and why,
Feel like with time, a part of me has left,
The part that of me that smiled,


I used to think that life was a wonderful thing,
Had time so i filled my heart with the trivial,
Now i see life as a pendulum swing,
And Life ain't beautiful now...

Now every day i walk the black dog,
And watching it change into a wolf,
It's leading me into the dark,
And into my ear it whispers and says,
"You need to press pause to remember everything... Before i eat you alive..."

And now in the dark i say...

Now i know why i've chosen to strive,
It's my life and i need to survive,
I'm needed alive.
