Olly Knights if not now when

Select language to translate this lyric

I'm slow in letting go
White lies underneath will show
In time the demons deep below are trying
We hide in the underground
We dream a world around
Our busy brains ignore the sound of crying
Its easy to romanticize the past
I only want to leave a thing that lasts
Time will pass, surely will
Your years underneath the sun
Fresh face where lines have come
The burning bodies of the young and fearless
How long will it take to fall
How long for you hit the wall
I'd banish all from rise and fall if i could
It's easy to romanticize your past
I only want to leave a thing that lasts
Time will pass, surely will
If not now, when I won't wait for an afterlife
If not now, when can I taste you upon the night
Our eyes if you take my hand
You're sad and I understand
How can smile when you're so busy dying
Us ravage on the run, must fend for everyone
Our selfishness can be undone i know this
It's easy to romanticize your past
I only want to leave a thing that lasts
Time will pass, surely will
If not now, when i wont wait for an afterlife
If not now, when can i taste you upon my life
The markers of the day move very fast
I only want to build a thing that lasts
Time will pass, it surely will
