Still Beating - Matthew Barber

Ever wonder why we became alive what does being mean to you?

Are you afraid to die does it make you cry when people do?

Take it as it goes or make it so we’ve all got our own ideals

Thorns with the rose highs and the lows trying to feel

Ever wonder how people started out?

Who were the first two kids to fall in love?

How we doing now?

All I know is that there isn’t enough

Some will tell you how to get all heaven will allow

But I’m not sure I could pull it off

So I’m betting on the now while my heart’s still beating

Ever wonder why looking eye to eye feels like the truest thing?

Minds are aligned in time a sign that we are living

Take it as it comes or gimme some we all get robbed and steal

Wise are the ones who watch our eyes carefully

Ever wonder how people started out?

Who were the first two kids to pick a fight?

How we doing now?

All I know is they’ll be fighting tonight

Some are making vows some are taking bows

Me, I’m just trying to do a few things right

And I’m starting right now while my heart’s still beating
