Seems like once upon a time ago
I was where I was supposed to be
My vision was true and my heart was too
There was no end to what I could dream
I walked like a hero into the setting sun
Everyone called out my name
Death to me was just a mystery
I was too busy raising up Cain
But nothing lasts forever
Your best efforts don't always pay
Sometimes you get sick and you don't get better
That's when life is short, even in its longest days
So you pretend not to notice
That everything has changed
Way that you look and the friends you once had
So you keep on acting the same
Deep down in your soul
You know you, you got no flame
And who knows then which way to go
Life is short, even in its longest days
All I got here, is a rear view mirror
Reflections of where I've been
So you tell yourself I'll be back up on top some day
But you know there's nothing waiting up there for you anyway
Nothing lasts forever
And your best efforts don't always pay
Sometimes you get sick and you don't get better
That's when life is short even in its longest days
Life is short even in its longest days
