Memento Mori

You drift through life and say:
“I’ll do it another day” because you do what you always do
And, yes, you’re going to scoff, but you always put things off
Surely the goal is to take control

And you would see what I mean if you could just stop being so nonchalant

And look how all the trees have already lost their leaves
This year’s going to disappear
And you know that it’s true, the world won’t wait for you
You’ve got to make a move

You can’t ignore that there’s a door that is just waiting for you to unlock
It’s not just about you; it affects me, too
We’re all running against the clock

I can see the mountains from here and they don’t look too high
I can see the mountains from here and they don’t look too high
