MOMENT OF LIFE

STORY

About the moment you notice the days have started bleeding into each other — and you realize how much of life slips by while you're going through the motions. A quiet, late-night kind of song. The kind that writes itself when you can't sleep.

LYRICS

I say hello, how was your day

She says like a thousand before

The same routine, day after day

And she smiles as she closes the door

She says she thinks a lot about her sanity

More and more I’m seeing less of me

And I don’t know exactly who I’m supposed to be

I want to be somebody else

Cause I am so tired of being myself

Now I’m aware of the time slipping by

And I don’t want to miss a moment of life

We lay awake, here in the dark

And we talk about running away

She says these days they’ve lost their blue

They’re just different shades of gray

She says she thinks a lot about her sanity

More and more I’m seeing less of me

And I don’t know exactly who I’m supposed to be

I want to be somebody else

Cause I am so tired of being myself

Acutely aware of the time slipping by

I don’t want to miss a moment of life

A moment of life
