Time Of Our Lives Lyrics


I once saw a man on fire, staring at his window
Watching as the flames grew higher and higher
I thought that I saw him cry or was he only laughing
As his life went rushing on
And maybe we're just like him
Maybe we're all waiting for our moment to begin
Who of us are open, who of us have freedom, really?
Who of us can tell what these dark days will bring?
All of us are hurting, all of us are crazy, now
All of us are watching the world as it spins
I once had bird like you, a bird of prey
Still you're tearing at my insides
And yesterday when you flew so far away
If you find the morning save a piece for me
Who of us are open, who of us have freedom really?
Who of us can tell what these dark days will bring?
All of us are hurting, all of us are crazy, now, we're crazy, now

I smoked a cigarette, I'll eat the flesh instead
Another whiskey more or less or more or less, yeah
I like the drugs that sail, I love you, when we fail, when we fail
I once saw a man on fire, staring at his window
Watching as the flames grew higher and higher
I thought that I saw him cry or was he only laughing, laughing
Who of us are open, who of us have freedom really?
Who of us can tell what these dark days will bring?
All of us are hurting, all of us are crazy, now, we're crazy, now
All of us are hating, all of us are dreaming
All of us are watching these times of our lives
We want it all, we want for nothing, for nothing, now

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
David Usher (born on April 24, 1966) is a British-born rock singer-songwriter, and renowned humanist, who lived for a number of years in Montreal, but then moved to the East Village in Manhattan, New York City. In 2007 David and family moved back to Montreal permanently after having a holiday there. Formerly the frontman of the Canadian band Moist, he more recently embarked on a solo career.

David Usher was born in Oxford to an ethnic Thai Buddhist, artist Samphan Usher and a Jewish Montrealer, Dan Usher, who is an economist at Queen's University.[1] He has relocated to Malaysia, New York, California and Thailand since early childhood before his family settled in Kingston, Ontario. He attended high school at Kingston Collegiate and Vocational Institute.

Attending university at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, British Columbia, Usher joined Moist in 1993 and their 1994 debut release, Silver, went quadruple platinum in Canada. As the lead singer of the band, he shot to stardom with his soulful voice and vaguely exotic good looks.

After Moist's multi-platinum follow-up, Creature, was released in 1996, David took some time during the band's hiatus to record his debut solo album, Little Songs, released in 1998. That same year he married photographer and actress Sabrina Reeves, with whom he is still living. Together they have a daughter, Coco, who was born on January 12, 2003.

After recording the album Mercedes 5 and Dime with Moist, he revived his solo career again, releasing the highly successful Morning Orbit in the summer 2001. It contains the hit single "Black Black Heart". In 2003, he released another solo album entitled Hallucinations, which matched the amount of major label albums he had recorded with Moist.

In 2005, he surpassed that number with the release of If God Had Curves. The album had a resemblance to his first solo effort Little Songs, as it is dominantly an acoustic album. This album also featured a collaboration with Tegan Quin, on the track "Hey Kids".

2007 David and family have moved back to Montreal, Canada and David's embarking on a tour in September/October and November 2007.
