Underwater

Ran into an old man bathed in tears of his own Asked me if I had a light so he could smoke Told me his story, a man-made of flesh and bone Who's been through surreal odds for too long Giving me reasons why I should carry on cause our life is borrowed every day Told me that everything's a test for our souls to see how long we can take it Before the breakdown comes... I said oh, man, I don't wanna be underwater like you Oh, man, I don't wanna be underwater like you Asked him why he's been telling me this tale and what could I do to help him to find his way After a long breath, he just looked into my eyes and said something I'll never forget He said... "Live every day like it's your last day on earth cause time is not your friend anymore" He despaired leaving long traces of dust I was alone at the road praying for my soul!... I said oh, man, I don't wanna be underwater like you Oh, man, I don't wanna be underwater like you I said oh, man, I don't wanna be underwater like you Oh, man, I don't wanna be underwater like you
