Lukas Graham - Before The Morning Sun lyrics
[Lukas Graham - Before The Morning Sun lyrics]
Sitting awake before the morning sun
Only 'cause I couldn't fall asleep
While the night was young
I'm restless, can't call myself stressless
These past weeks have left
Me breathless and senseless
My brother from another mother lost a brother
My father lost his father, I lost a friend
Something that I couldn't comprehend
We'll never see these men again
Once upon a time life was so innocent
We're past the past the now is now
The future will be here in a minute
But, I don't care what's going down, anyhow
I miss the time with the many smiles
When we could always stretch it
For a little while
Now you're gone and it feels like I'm alone
Oh, God damn it, how I miss you so
Sometimes it will feel time can stop
Sometimes I feel like giving up
But then I hear a voice inside of me
Saying, better die with your chin up
Than living on your knees
Daydreaming is okay sometimes
But to face the facts really hurts
And when you finally feel the
Weight of your burden
Get up again if you kiss the dirt
I'd rather live one day as a lion
Than live a hundred years as a sheep
I'd rather reign in hell than serve in heaven
Live my dreams out in reality
And not in my sleep
The past is gone the now is now
The future will be here in a minute
But, I don't care what's going down
What's going down
People tell me, pick yourself up off the road
Can't I just stay and get
Squashed like a little toad?
They'll say, you have a burden to carry
Somewhere along the line
There's a girl to marry
But don't worry, I'll get up
I won't give it up even if it won't stop
Hurting in my heart now that we're apart
My chronic pain is about to start
Will it be hard?
I'd rather live one day as a lion
Than live a hundred years as a sheep
I'd rather reign in hell than serve in heaven
Live my dreams out in reality
And not in my sleep
We're past the past the now is now
The future will be here in a minute
But, I don't care what's going down
'Cause we're past the past the now is now
The future will be here in a minute
But, I don't care what's going down, anyhow
Only 'cause I couldn't fall asleep
While the night was young
I'm restless, can't call myself stressless
These past weeks have left
Me breathless and senseless
My brother from another mother lost a brother
My father lost his father, I lost a friend
Something that I couldn't comprehend
We'll never see these men again
Once upon a time life was so innocent
We're past the past the now is now
The future will be here in a minute
But, I don't care what's going down, anyhow
I miss the time with the many smiles
When we could always stretch it
For a little while
Now you're gone and it feels like I'm alone
Oh, God damn it, how I miss you so
Sometimes it will feel time can stop
Sometimes I feel like giving up
But then I hear a voice inside of me
Saying, better die with your chin up
Than living on your knees
Daydreaming is okay sometimes
But to face the facts really hurts
And when you finally feel the

I'd rather live one day as a lion

The future will be here in a minute
