Close To Good Non Omnis Moriar
[Verse 1]
When you're halfway there
And you're lookin' back
First steps and cigarettes
Are blending into yesterday
Do you smile when
You live those years again?
Or would you go back and change
Everything away?
Can you feel the noise
Amplified with every choice
Somewhere off in the distance
Bells are ringin' out for the first time
[Chorus]
And it's news to me
Bad news, I can't believe
I'm already starin' into the end
Only now I see
What I could've done differently
Live better if I could only live again
But you won't take all of me
[Verse 2]
You used to sit
In the classroom with
All of the other aspiring
Kings and queens
But one day you find
When you shelve the books
The prologue is written out
And the rest is up to me
Can you feel the noise
Amplified with every choice
The days you're afraid to regret
You're living them now
And you say to yourself
[Chrous]
This is news to me
Bad news, I can't believe
I'm already starin' into the end
Only now I see (Only now you see)
What I could've done differently (What you could've done differently)
Live better if I could only live again (Live better if you could only live again)
But you won't take all of me
I will become a memory
No legacies can echo into eternity
But for now we're only halfway there
What's right is right
And what's fair is fair
And I'll greet you with a smile at the end of the journey
But no matter what you do
Not all of me shall die then
