There must have been a moment
When your heart began to beat
Maybe on a cloudy day
Where one could sense the rain

And someone standing nearby
Might have lifted his head
For a second stood there listening
Never knowing why

Perhaps there was a long line
Of things that got too much
Or some god-given countdown
Just arrived at zero time

Your glasses on the piano
drawing on the wall
We went swimming on a sunny day
Your ashes in the car

Life is smaller now
And bigger at the same time
Time is endless now
And obsolete, [bad word] still

The sky is peaceful now
And scary at the same time
Man, I used to live forever
Now I know it can't last

I'll be the past

Life is smaller now
And bigger at the same time
And time is friendly now
But precious as the [bad word] fast

The sky is clearer now
And scary at the same time
Man, I used to live forever
Now I know it won't last

I'll be the past
