I don't even remember the first time I heard this song.
It's been too long of a time.
To be honest, when I first heard the song, I was not a big fan.
I think the song was just too slow, the melody was too whiney, and the singer was someone much older than me (and not cute too)
It's not until I really read the lyrics that I love this song.
Plus the countless number of time this song was chosen in the karaoke time.
(karaoke is a really good thing to do if you want to understand the in-depth meaning of songs. trust me!)
Then I get it.
This song has unbelievably deep meaning.
What if you have 100 years to live?
Considering how greedy a human being can be, I also in the same page with Vladimir John Ondrasik.
I think, if I would have 100 years to live, I would be too easy on myself until I was 99. Then, I would be freaking out, because I would only have another year to live.
Pretty classic.
And now that I'm currently planning on my near future, I think about the lyrics of this song a lot.
I think I have been wasting too much time, unfortunately.
I wish I would have another 100 years to live
Five For Fighting - 100 Years
I'm 15 for a moment
Caught in between 10 and 20
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are
I'm 22 for a moment
She feels better than ever
And we're on fire
Making our way back from Mars
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose
15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
I'm 33 for a moment
Still the man, but you see I'm a they
A kid on the way
A family on my mind
I'm 45 for a moment
The sea is high
And I'm heading into a crisis
Chasing the years of my life
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy, Time to lose yourself
Within a morning star
15 I'm all right with you
15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
Half time goes by
Suddenly you’re wise
Another blink of an eye
67 is gone
The sun is getting high
We're moving on...
I'm 99 for a moment
Dying for just another moment
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are
15 there's still time for you
22 I feel her too
33 you’re on your way
Every day's a new day...
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to choose
Hey 15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
