A cover of that Vance Joy song that came out a while ago. Recorded this for fun when I had a few hours to burn. Lots of fun to play and record.

Hozier - Angel Of Small Death & The Codeine Scene (Live)

LYRICS: 

Ever since I was a little kid I knew what I wanted
But I was a bit shy so I never ever flaunted
haunted me all my life like a ghost in the night
but I wasn’t afraid to leave the closet open wide 

& growing up gets a little tough when
the kids are all mean & they’re leaving you out 
& they’re saying that you’re not enough
but you’re gonna get through this
see what the truth is
the cool kids from the past are gonna be biting their tongues

Oh yes, I know I’m young but I 
know things won’t come if I don’t try
time really isn’t on my side
What’s gonna happen tomorrow?

But right now I’m breathing, I’m alive
I’d rather seize it all & thrive
than reach the day I die
wish I’d have done it before cause

Life is short, life is short
So I’m gonna do what I want
I’m gonna do what I want with it [x2]

Now I’m looking to the future, 
learning from the past &
the present is a present but it isn’t meant to last
in the fast lane with the fast pass
screaming my name 
don’t forget it you’re gonna regret it
cause you letting me go, a damn 

shame on you, you didn’t believe it before
claim that you could read all the signs on the door
fame was something that was inevitable
I bet you wish you could touch me now

but I’m high up in a sky with a thousand stars
lies were being told & creating scars
& I know why cause all the hurt has taken me far
the haters & the naysayers 
are gonna be wishing they’d swung

Oh yes, I know I’m young but I’ve 
learned that it’s worth it when you try 
cause you’ve gotta fall a thousand times
before you die you gotta live through the sorrow

See the forest for the trees 
& be able to find 
the reason for the letters & the words that never rhyme
Cause when it is your time, you’re gonna wish you’d have done it before

[chorus]

starting over now
starting over now
before it’s over now
over now, now now   

[chorus to end]
