Description
Sometimes love ends not with a slam of the door, but with a long echo. One that seems to linger, even though everything has long since fallen silent. Warm dust from the past hangs in the air, and inside there is an eternal ‘what if’. The world keeps turning, but for some reason the heart lags behind a few revolutions, like an old record player stuck on a favourite chorus.
And somewhere between confession and repentance, a strange honesty is born - naked, awkward, but alive. When there is nothing left but the desire to bring back that version of yourself where it was still ‘us.’ And even if it doesn't work out, it's still worth a try. Simply because now is definitely not the time to die.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Alright, need this energy back. It's what I want.
Alright, I've been missing you bad. It's been too long. Alright, alright, I had enough.
Enough with this apathy. Apathy, yes. How long have I gone astray? I can see the light.
My passion has died away. Bring me the fires.
Oh God, please can we just go back? Go back to those brighter days. I wasn't right.
Yeah, I've been scandalous. I wasn't wise.
Such an antagonist. It wasn't nice, I know. But I learned a lot, baby.
Let me handle this again. I need you back.
Yeah.
Never wanted nothing like I want you, tell me you'll be mine. I need you back. Yeah.
Now is not the time to die, I must be alive.
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
Now is not the time to die, I'm alive.
Where have you gone? I'm all alone.
Yes, I've been, yes, I've been here living on my own.
How can I go on without you coming home?
I wasn't right.
Yeah, I've been scandalous. I wasn't wise.
Such an antagonist. I know, but I learned a lot, baby.
Let me handle this again. Just once again.
I need you back, babe. Yeah.
Never wanted nothing like I want you, tell me you'll be mine. I need you back. Yeah.
Now is not the time to die, I must be alive.
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
Now is not the time to die, I'm alive. Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
Now is not the time to die, I'm alive.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I need you back in my life.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I need you back, I'm alive. I need you back.
