The Latin term for this sentiment is Carpe Diem
Because you are food for the worms
And believe it or not
Each and everyone of us in this room
One day is going to stop breathing, turn cold and die
But now I would like you to step forward
And see some of the faces from the past
These boys are now fertilizing the daffodils
And if you listen real close
You can hear them whispering their legacy to you
Do you hear it?
Hear me now
Trust these words
Hear me now
Hear me
Stop chasing ghosts that cannot be locked
Stop chasing what you can't grab for
Start living the way you want to
Start living because you have to
Seize your fucking day
The dreams you have to chase
The faith you have to lay
I won't pray
Because it won't come too easy to say
Whom will you trust for?
What am I supposed to feel?
In what we must believe?
