It's not my time

Thank God I almost got completely over from my finger's wound. It still hurts a little whenever I put my hand in my pocket, which I do rather often, since I keep my music device in it. But anyway, I can play and I can write again. That's great news. To celebrate that I'm beginning with this blog... Let's see if this lasts... I get bored of internet pretty easy... :P

First, this song from 3 doors down, the first single off their latest album... Not a great song indeed, pretty much the same than in their "17 days" record and of course, a lot like some off "away from the sun". Anyway, I liked the lyrics very much (the music reminds me of "when I'm gone"), maybe just because it seems to relate to my life.

"IT'S NOT MY TIME"
(3 doors down)

Looking back at the beginning of this and how life was
Just you and me and love and all of our friends
Living life like an ocean
Now the currents slowly pulling me down
It's getting harder to breath
It won't be too long and I'll be going under
Can you save me from this?

'Cause it's not my time I
'm not going
There's a fear in me
It's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know I won't go

I look ahead to all the plans that we made
And the dreams that we had
I'm in a world that tries to take them away
But I'm taking them back
All this time I've just been too blind to understand
What should matter to me
My friend, this life we live
Is not what we have it's what we believe

It's not my time I'm not going
There's a fear in me
It's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
I won't go

There might be more than you believe
There might be more than you can't see
It's not my time I'm not going
There's a fear in me It's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything
I know It's not my time I'm not going
There's a will in me
Now it's gonna show
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
There might be more than you believe
There might be more than you can see I won't go
No I won't go down


My interpretation: just when you're kinda sad and all that because some love failed, you just begin to find some other things that interest you. Not that you haven't seen them before, but you start to appreciate them because you need something to get a hold onto... I had this lover who I first listened the second album by 3 doors down with, and we have lot of "plans and dreams", which were finally lost because they were made out of dust. Now, some years later I have to find a way out to rebuild my own life again. I like specially the part that goes "I'm in a world that tries to take them away, but I'm takin' 'em back", sounds pretty optimistic...
