One Moment Away

The Afters-One Moment Away

Wake up and smile
Put on a tie
Walk to the car
And wave goodbye
Radio on
You're singing along
It's all gonna change but how could you know


You're one moment away
One chance left to take
And you're gone
Are they gonna remember you for running away
Or saving the day from the darkness
And letting your love shine through
What will you do
You're one moment away


Eyes are on you
The pressure is on
Where will you stand when the lines have been drawn
The clocks have all stopped, the story's been told
This is your life, so how will it show


No you can't pretend that forever
Will never come knocking at your door


Run through the flames
Never look back
What did you think that you came here for

This song kept playing in my head last Friday, but I had no idea what was the name of the song and who sang it. I had a feeling it was by the Afters so I played the album and true enough it was them. Beautiful song. Last song on the album. Unusual of me to notice it since I don’t pay much attention to the end of the album. But I’ve noticed some of the best songs from artists are at the end of the album, especially Jet songs, like “Lazy Gun”, “Timothy”, “Sgt. Major” and “Shiny Magazine”. I should start listening to albums from the back then. Haha.

Tomorrow I’m going back to school. Really don’t feel up to it. Cross my fingers and hope I get a fever.
