100 Years
Five For Fighting

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



This song makes me cry. Its kind of like when I had that epiphany in IH class that someday I am actually going to die. Then I started thinking, that even if I die at the average age for women (which I think is like up to 78 or 80 now) that only leaves me 60 years. That's only three and a third more 18 year periods! Then, I realized I was thinking too much. I think I realized my mortality and it was scary.

Dustin will be happy to know I finished the last episode of "Felicity-Freshman Year" today. Watching it makes me think about a lot of things that happened in this past year. When I think about where I was this time last year, I think about how much has changed in my life. I've lost a lot of people along the way, one in particular that at one point in my life was a central figure. But I figure we live and we learn, and life goes on. That's all a part of life--losing people along the way. We also gain people too--people that could possibly be the love of our lives. I'll leave you all with those words of wisdom today. God, why does Felicity always make me start thinking deeply about the "meanings" of things?
