Night Time

Most people who know me
Would say that I smile a lot
I’m a positive optimist
Slowly metabolizing
All this fear that I’ve got

When I get older
Maybe I’ll grow out of it
And get used to the fact that this life is finite
And the only wild card that you get

We’re all driven by something
If we’re lucky we’re inspired
I think about death quite a bit
Usually at night time

My grandma on the mountain
Some days I still grieve her
And I never lost trust in what I was told
of the story of Julius Cesar

He stood by the statue
In the apocryphal tale
Came to realize the number of years that we get
Has nothing to do with what’s fair

We’re all driven by something
If we’re lucky we’re inspired
I think about death quite a bit
Usually at night time

Oooh, oooh, oooh
Oooh, oooh, oooh

No family before me
Wore a cap and gown
No one finished up elementary school
Or traveled away from this town

And that just makes me grateful
For the past that I had
Our house was the smallest, but we didn’t notice
You compare, you despair, then you’re dead

We’re all driven by something
If we’re lucky we’re inspired
I think about death quite a bit
Usually at night time

We’re all driven by something
If we’re lucky we’re inspired
I think about death quite a bit
Usually at night time

Usually at night time
