if my hearing will go anyway
then i’m listening to music on full blast
and if my voice will weaken
then i’m screaming to songs while i can
if my memory fades
then i’ll take as many pictures as i please
and if my taste goes away
then i’ll eat the cake ‘til every last piece
if we all grow tired
then i’m staying up ‘til sunrise
and if we end up bored
then i’m partying past midnight
if we all grow wrinkles
then i’ll love my body while i can
and if we become bed-ridden
then i’ll soak in the sun and tan
if our hearts break anyway
then i’ll keep falling for the wrong one
and if hearts forget how to beat
then i’ll use mine until it’s done
if we all die anyway
then i’ll live it up right now
because these years don’t last forever
and i want to look back and think
‘wow’
