100 Years by Five for Fighting

I'm fifteen for a moment
Caught in between ten and twenty
and I'm just dreaming,
counting the ways to where you are.

I'm twenty-two for a moment
She feels better than ever
And we're on fire
Making our way back from Mars.

Fifteen there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose.
Fifteen
There's never a wish better than this
When you only got a hundred years to live.

I'm thirty-three for a moment
Still a man but you see I'm a they
A kid on the way
A family on my mind.

I'm forty-five for a moment
The sea is high
and I'm heading into a crisis
Chasing the years of my life

Half time goes by
Suddenly you're wise
Another blink of an eye
Sixty-seven is gone
The sun is getting high
We're moving on.

I'm ninety-nine for a moment
Dying for another moment
and I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are

Fifteen there's still time for you
Twenty-two I feel her too
Thirty-three you're on your way
Every day's a new day.

Fifteen there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to choose
Hey, fifteen there's never a wish
better than this
When you only got a hundred years to live.
