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 Any how 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
