Live Forever
Matthew West Lyrics

86,400 seconds, 86,400 seconds, 86,400 seconds
The repetition highlights the importance of every passing moment.

Make 'em count, make 'em matter
Urge to make every moment worthwhile and not let them go in vain.

Make it now, live forever
Encouraging to live in the present to leave a lasting legacy.

Is this all there is?
Questioning the meaning of life and existence beyond our perception.

Seconds and minutes and hours and days?
Highlighting the fundamental units of time that make up our life.

That's all we get and when it ends
Acknowledging the mortality of life and inevitability of death.

Do we faint like the flowers they put on our graves
Metaphorically comparing human life to that of a flower that fades away.

Am I just a dash
Wondering about the significance of our brief existence in the grand scheme of things.

Between the numbers that fate will decide
Accepting the unpredictable nature of destiny and its hold over our fate.

Is true that nothing lasts
Realization that everything is temporary and nothing is permanent.

Or is there a way to outlive my life?
Seeking for a way to leave a lasting impact beyond our time here on earth.

I don't wanna live for now
Not just living for the present but to make it count for the future as well.

I wanna live forever
Aspire to leave a legacy that lasts beyond our physical lifetime.

I just wanna make it count
A desire to live purposefully and leave a positive impact.

Starting now
Determination to start living intentionally from this moment on.

They say you get one life
An acknowledgement of the finite nature of life.

Go on, do whatever feels right
Challenging society's norms and expectations to live authentically.

There's no consequence
A rebuttal to the notion that our actions have no consequences.

Here and now is all that counts
Emphasizing the significance of living in the present, but not at the expense of future consequences.

But I know this is not as good as it gets
Belief that there is more to life that we should strive for.

There's more to life than what my eyes can see
Acknowledging the limitations of our human perception.

I want my song to sing for eternity
Desire to leave a lasting legacy that inspires others.

I wanna live like I know the life
Living intentionally in a way that aligns with our beliefs and values.

That waits for me is something heavenly
Belief in an afterlife that is better than our current existence.

Gotta keep my eyes on the prize
Focusing on our goals and aspirations to live a fulfilling life.

There ain't no change in my mind
Determination to live intentionally and with purpose.

More than a moment in time
Aspiring to leave a lasting legacy beyond our brief existence.

I'm gonna live, live forever
Affirmation of the desire to leave a lasting legacy beyond our time on earth.

I know I'm just passing through
An understanding of our temporary existence on earth.

To the other side of the blue
Referring to an afterlife that is beyond our current understanding.

This world's got nothing on you
Belief that there is something better beyond our current existence.
