Story behind the song
You and I could die at any moment. Everything and everyone we loved or held dear, we would be seperated from in an instant. Laugh, love, play, experience, create, share.....our time here is limited, so please, make the most of it. Peace
Lyrics
Verse:
There are days I contemplate what it’s like to sleep eternally,
My eyes forever closed never to see friends and family,
Would I go in tragedy or peacefully and silently?
Die with no regrets or with kickin’ myself thinkin’ what might’ve been,
Death is hard to imagine and comprehend,
All I’ve ever known is this existence,
To think that all I am will end,
It’s a scary thought imagining being reduced to naught,
From being full of life force to an empty corpse,
Sometimes I get caught off guard,
Reality bombards,
The heart with shards,
Reminding me one day I will depart,
Not physically but spiritually,
My entire essence as a human being would cease to be,
Death is a bridge few people willingly cross,
It’s always won against mortality,
And has never lost,
Nothing in in life is certain,
Aside from the fact one day this curtain,
Will come down,
Take a bow,
Pause for a brief applause,
Stage lights blackout,
Chorus:
Kiss death…
Embrace life…
Cherish every breath,
Be blessed every time you awake to see next light,
You don’t get a second chance to try again,
There is no sequel once the reaper comes,
It’s the end,
So let me ask you this as a human as a brother as your friend,
Are you truly ready for your death?
So let me ask you this as a human as a brother as your friend,
Are you truly ready for your death?
Verse 2:
If I died right now at this very moment,
I wonder if I would’ve achieved atonement,
For all my sins, for every monster that I’ve ever been,
For all the trespasses against my fellow human beings ,
How many moments in life would I regret?
Every action of hate that I made and the words I never said,
All the times I should’ve acted, but didn’t,
All the advice I was given by people who sympathised with my position,
Trying to help make life less of a mission but I didn’t listen,
Every person and act I didn’t permit my forgiveness,
How many mistakes would I end up wishing – I had rectified
How many opportunities did I let pass by?
Could I die right here right now and honestly say I lived my life,
On my own terms on my accord to it’s very fullest,
Welcome death with no regrets before I bite the bullet?
Or would I beg the reaper for another dance with life?
Screaming for another shot as she raises her scythe,
Too late, sun’s set as crows’ farewell the last light,
Had my chance but I guess I didn’t make it mine,
Chorus:
Kiss death…
Embrace life…
Cherish every breath,
Be blessed every time you awake to see next light,
You don’t get a second chance to try again,
There is no sequel once the reaper comes,
It’s the end,
So let me ask you this as a human as a brother as your friend,
Are you truly ready for your death?
So let me ask you this as a human as a brother as your friend,
Are you truly ready for your death?
Verse 3:
No one knows when or how,
Maybe even a week from now,
I could end up as ashes,
Or underneath a dirt mound,
When I look at life through the eyes of man about to become dust,
I realise that I haven’t had enough,
Of the good times and making memories,
I want to live as long as I can happily,
Loving all the people close to me,
Realising just how much I take for granted,
And how much my priorities need to be readjusted,
I expend my time and energy on the unnecessary,
Leaving what should be primary secondary,
What I used to fret about is now merely trivial,
No need to be serial,
When I’m living today like tomorrow’s my funeral,
I’ll kiss death on her thin lips and hear her hiss,
And say ‘not today b*** ’ I still want to live,
She can claim me when the rigor mortis sets in,
Until then I’m in love with life and I’m gonna make it a long term thing,
Chorus:
Kiss death…
Embrace life…
Cherish every breath,
Be blessed every time you awake to see next light,
You don’t get a second chance to try again,
There is no sequel once the reaper comes,
It’s the end,
So let me ask you this as a human as a brother as you
