Birthday - The Crüxshadows

Roll out of bed, look in the mirror

And wonder who you are

Another year has come and gone

Today is your birthday

But it might be the last day of your life

What will you do if tomorrow it’s all gone?

You won’t be young forever

There’s only a fraction to the sum

You won’t be young forever

Nor will anyone

So…

Look at your life: who do you want to be before you die?

Look at your life: what do you want to do?

Look at your life: who do you want to be before you die?

Look at your life: you haven’t got forever

And tell me what really matters

Is it the money and the fame?

Or how many people might eventually know your name?

But maybe you touch one life

And the world becomes a better place to be

Maybe you give their dreams another day

Another chance to be free

Happy birthday
