Now and Then
If you thought that I was brave
To look into your eyes that way
I never had a thing to say
You know I just arrived
And I was only half this bad
Before I knew the joys we had
So don't be angry
Don't be sad
If nothing should survive
And if you still decide to call
I hope that you remember when
You stood outside the paper wall
Long enough to count to ten
And I can't explain without a lie
What happens when you die
All these words so new to me
Are they supposed to set us free
I don't believe in liberty
I just believe in life
How could something perfect change
To something less and back again
And in between have all this pain
Because we're asking why
And when at times I hide away
I swear there's nothing more to do
I swear there's nothing more to say
I'm only here to be with you
And all the rest to be here too
If only we could stay
To look into your eyes that way
I never had a thing to say
You know I just arrived
And I was only half this bad
Before I knew the joys we had
So don't be angry
Don't be sad
If nothing should survive
And if you still decide to call
I hope that you remember when
You stood outside the paper wall
Long enough to count to ten
And I can't explain without a lie
What happens when you die
All these words so new to me
Are they supposed to set us free
I don't believe in liberty
I just believe in life
How could something perfect change
To something less and back again
And in between have all this pain
Because we're asking why
And when at times I hide away
I swear there's nothing more to do
I swear there's nothing more to say
I'm only here to be with you
And all the rest to be here too
If only we could stay
