I have been proctrastinating on the going out and buying cds but i just got the Atreyu CD and well i love it!!! but it came with two really awsome things the lyrics and the song writer explination of the song... but what he makes extreamly clear is that these are his and that what you think is right as well... theres is just one song i really want to put up here
Living Each Day Like You're Already Dead Lyrics
Raise up the ghosts of the dead - I won't die like them
Push past the point of raw emotion - I will breathe
Exist with a broken spirit - I will die complete
Ignore what the angels say enjoy that special place where the demons speak to me
I won't pick out the lining of my coffin yet unless I am sure that color satin is me
Better yet go with crushed velvet, that way I'll be damn sure to enjoy eternity
My daily life writes the eulogy, engraved on tombstone diaries,
laid to rest with the passing of time
Seems to me that even love can die
And the rituals, that fade away, and the roses that cease to be laid
And to me it clearly appears that we're already one foot in a very shallow grave
I will love with passion
You live like you're dead
As each day dies, are we living on to the next or passing on in the twilight
what did Alex Varkatzas have to say about this? something quite simple.
"this is a super old song, and it's pretty cut and dry. Live for yourslef,and live today like tomarrow may never come. Tell your friends and family you love them cause who knows when you waon;t be able to again. And most importantly do waht make your soul happy forget everone else's motivation, drama, and desire and do waht you need to for yourself."
as you can see this is what Life is all about to me at least !
