Scared to death

As the world stands still

Time marches on

When you don't have the will

As the first light of today

Breaks across your face

Another year, one more rotation

Congratulations

For the first time

You're alive

Can you tell me what that's like?

At the end of it all, what will remain?

As the choir calls out your name

Never thought it could happen to you

Does that make it any less true?

I still ride my bicycle, scrape my knee, cry for help

Like a kid, thought I knew how it felt

Coming of age

For the first time

You're alive

Can you tell me what that's like?

At the end of it all, what will remain?

As the choir calls out your name
