[Verse 1] Year one was lots of fun But nothin' lasts forever in my dreams Two, I followed you Because you knew the way or so it seemed At three, I still believed That we would be becoming destiny At four, I wanted more But you were movin' on to better things
[Chorus] At twenty-five, and still alive Much longer than expected for a man At twenty-five, all hope has died And the glass of my intentions turns to sand And shatters in my hand
[Verse 2] Five to six, a lie, a kiss The secrets that were served we'd never say Skip to eight, we called it fate To live to let us die another day At nine, I saw the signs Reflected in the barrel of a gun Ten, we're here again Those who loved me burned up in the sun
[Chorus] At twenty-five, and still alive Much longer than expected for a man At twenty-five, all hope has died And the glass of my intentions turns to sand And shatters in my hand Shatters in my hand
[Bridge] From eleven-twelve, I held the future in my grasp And all through my teens, I screamed that may not live much past
[Breakdown] Twenty-one, two, three, four Twenty-one, two, three, four Twenty-one, two, three, four One, two, three, four
[Chorus] At twenty-five, and still alive Much longer than expected for a man At twenty-five, all hope has died And the glass of my intentions The glass of my intentions The glass of my intentions turns to sand And shatters in my hand Shatters in my hand In my hand ```
