"If We Were Vampires" brings me to tears each time I listen. All of us will leave others behind, and others will leave us behind.
Knowing that time is running out is a gift. It is up to each of us to make the best of the short time we have together.
Who do you want to give your every second to?
It's knowing that this can't go on forever
Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get forty years together
But one day I'll be gone
Or one day you'll be gone
...
Maybe time running out is a gift
I'll work hard 'til the end of my shift
And give you every second I can find
And hope it isn't me who's left behind
