Lyrics
0:26I remember when when I first moved here
0:30A long time ago
0:33'Cause I'd heard some song I used to hear back then
0:37A long time ago
0:53I remember when even further back
0:57In another town
0:59'Cause I saw something written I used to say back then
1:03Hard to comprehend
1:06And the question is was I more alive then than I am now
1:14I happily have to disagree
1:19I laugh more often now I cry more often now
1:28I am more me
1:43But of course some days I just lie around
1:47And hardly exist
1:50And can't tell apart what I'm eating
1:53From my hand or my wrist
1:56'Cause flesh is flesh flesh as flesh as flesh
2:00The difference is thin
2:03But life has a certain ability of breathing new life into me
2:07So I breathe it in
2:09It says here we are and we all are here
2:13And you still can make sense
2:16If you just show up and present an honest face
2:20Instead of that grin
2:22And the question is was I more alive then than I am now
2:31I happily have to disagree
2:35I laugh more often now I cry more often now
2:45I am more me
3:00And the other day this new friend of mine
3:04Said something to me
3:07"Just because something starts differently
3:10Doesn't mean it's worth less"
3:13And I soaked it in how I soaked it in
3:17How I soaked it in
3:19And just as to prove how right he was
3:23Then you came
3:26So I'm gonna give yes I'm gonna give
3:30I'm gonna give you a try
3:33So I'm gonna give yes I'm gonna give
3:37I'm gonna give you a try
3:39And the question is was I more alive then than I am now
3:47I happily have to disagree
3:52I laugh more often now I cry more often now
4:01I am more me
I remember when when I first moved here A long time ago 'Cause I'd heard some song I used to hear back then A long time ago I remember when even further back In another town 'Cause I saw something written I used to say back then Hard to comprehend And the question is was I more alive then than I am now I happily have to disagree I laugh more often now I cry more often now I am more me But of course some days I just lie around And hardly exist And can't tell apart what I'm eating From my hand or my wrist 'Cause flesh is flesh flesh as flesh as flesh The difference is thin But life has a certain ability of breathing new life into me So I breathe it in It says here we are and we all are here And you still can make sense If you just show up and present an honest face Instead of that grin And the question is was I more alive then than I am now I happily have to disagree I laugh more often now I cry more often now I am more me And the other day this new friend of mine Said something to me "Just because something starts differently Doesn't mean it's worth less" And I soaked it in how I soaked it in How I soaked it in And just as to prove how right he was Then you came So I'm gonna give yes I'm gonna give I'm gonna give you a try So I'm gonna give yes I'm gonna give I'm gonna give you a try And the question is was I more alive then than I am now I happily have to disagree I laugh more often now I cry more often now I am more me
