Ash Ellis - Things You Should Do Before You Die Lyrics

My name is Ash, I come from the back of your mind
I'm never there for long and my presence isn't strong, but this is my advice

Say sorry to your friends, in those friendships that did end
So you don't leave any bad blood behind

You should do no harm but take no shit, remember that you're strong and you'll always have your spirit
Please be sure to keep that in mind, please be sure to keep that in mind

You should smoke less cigarettes and drink less whiskey, you'll probably live longer and it'll be less risky
But remember to live while you're young

Don't be afraid to open up these hard-picked words so that every single one you picked can be heard
Then people will remember the songs you've sung, people will remember the songs you've sung

Don't be scared to die but please don't lie if you happen to feel down about it
Let's talk it out, let's scream and shout, just 'cause life can be shit

But living can be great, if you want to satiate your desire to live a good life
Then you should do something you love so you can fly like a dove
And try to avoid all that strife, just try to avoid all that strife

But who the hell am I to be giving life advice to you
Who the hell am I to be giving life advice to anyone

But who the hell am I to be giving life advice to you
Who the hell am I to be giving life advice to anyone

Well

My name is Ash, I come from the back of your mind,
I'm never there for long and my presence isn't strong, but that was my advice
