about
Constantly, we listen to songs about the life after death. In this one, we talk about the life before death and we don’t mean when we born, grow up and that stuff, but the last moments in life when we see that “flash” before our eyes before we die.
That ‘flash” where they say, you see your entire life in an instant before die. Where you see the things you have done, the happiest moments and the saddest, too. The things you regret and the things you are proud of them.
This song is based in the Concord's accident in 2000. Not finding a way to save the plane, the pilot's last words were "too late... no time", words he said 16 seconds before the plane crash. We easily can imagine in those last seconds, the pilot saw his entire life before leave this world with 114 people more.

LYRICS:
Time, please don’t be fast, because my last wish is
To remember what I’ve done in life, the good memories
To stay with them for eternity
Sixteen seconds left until the end
My mind says “too late… no time”
So don’t wait for me
Don’t wait for me, to come back home
There is no way out of this
I have no place to go (x2)
Now, high notes will be, the last music I will hear
That is freezing my tears and the switch
To turn off this scene, to go back to good old reality
Five seconds left, before crashing
The sky is so gray, the sun’s so bright and
I’m so scared, of this unexpected end
“Too late… no time”, So don’t wait for me
Don’t wait for me, to come back home
There is no way out of this
I have no place to go (x2)
And this last breathe
Feels like it’s burning all my life and
I’m so impressed, of this such brittle life
“Too late… no time”, so don’t wait for me
Don’t wait for me
To come back home
There is no way out of this
I have no place to go (x2)
No way out of this, I have no place to go
No way out of this, I have no place to go
