If it's not me now

So after posting about  911’s song yesterday, I listened to their other new songs. I found a few good ones, such as In Another Life, Light Me Up, and Alive.

I couldn’t find the lyrics to In Another Life, and somehow I managed to write them out myself. (I don’t even know why I wanted the lyrics so much, probably because it sounded like a story and I wanted to know what “in another life” had to do with it?)

So here are the lyrics (as best I heard, but I think I got most of them right because the words were quite clear), without the repeated parts:

I gotta bite the bullet
I can’t just stand this side of the glass
I know I can’t keep looking through it
I gotta build my courage up and open the door and walk up to the counter and say
Hey what’s your name
How’s your day been
I wanna know when you’re on a break
Can we pull up a chair and sit down
Throw a little conversation around

Chorus:
‘Cause you know you know when something is right
It’s a perfect night when the stars are in line
I don’t care about time
‘Cause if it’s not me now, then it’s me in another life

Three weeks later, it’s going all good
Lucky for me I was your type
Now I can’t get you out of my head
Everything about your smile and your hair

Now you said you’ve been hurt before but it don’t matter
If your heart’s too high then throw me down a ladder
Gonna do whatever it takes
Step by step I’ll find a way

[chorus]

No matter what it takes
We will find a way
I will find the way to your heart

[chorus]

I love this line: If your heart’s too high then throw me down a ladder. Nicely figurative. :D
