I'm sure you think you know it all
That there is nothing more to say
But there's one thing I just recalled
You need to hear today

I told you so many stories
About choices to make
Long tales about shame and glory
Bad and honest mistakes
But I forgot to tell you

There's a few other things to know
Experiences to share
Some places you should never go
Oh, there's plenty, I swear

But I forgot to tell you
The one thing that really matters
This life is short
Don't waste your time

Life is like a race
Against the time
Against the space
A constant chase
An endless flow
Till the end of the show
This life is short
Don't waste your time

I'm sure you think you know it all
That there is nothing more to say

Life is like a race
You may try to run every day
But do spare time to rest
To observe the meaningful things
That you achieved

Even when comes the night
It's not over

Try to remain a decent man
No matter what happens
You will be wrong from time to time
A good lesson to learn

But I forgot to tell you
The one thing that really matters
This life is short
Don't waste your time
