You know, there used to be a thing I was so into
That I even forgot to sleep or eat, day in day out

Couldn't see what’s ahead but I just kept chasing
The less I knew, the more I went after

Right in the middle of that road, you bumped into me
Well, that ended your luck, but it was the best thing which happened to me

I never got to look you in the eye and ask but
Tell me, were you even a fraction happy like I was?

Life seems too long to run
Life seems too short to rеgret
Life seems too long to give up
Lifе seems too short to understand

Can I recall you only when nights get too much to take?
These stained memories of yours are mine after all

I look in the mirror to see if my smile is ok
That's when I saw a pathetic looking fella
He hardly smiles, just facing down to hide his tears

Dreams, songs, and roll of dice have always been so cold to me
I'll put on a phony smile again as if to keep myself warm
Such were the days, such is your smile
Giving me warmth and comfort from deep down inside

Wonder if we'll ever see each other in our next lifetime or more
When we do, please don't look so awkward

I'll fall in love with you all over again
No matter how much I defy, I know I will

Then let me hear you
That humongous life-straddling big mouth I know too well

Life seems too long to run
Life seems too short to regret
Life seems too long to give up
Life seems too short to fully understand

Can I recall you only when nights get too much to take?
These stained memories of yours are mine after all

I look in the mirror to see if my smile is ok
"Raise your face, man, even if you don't want to
Cause tears don't suit you"
Out of nowhere, you will hear
That friendly voice talking to you
