Old Before I Die Lyrics
She's taking me places,
I should never have been
She's showing me faces,
I should never have seen
Well these are strange days,
We're living in today
C'est la vie I say
I hope I'm old, before I die
I hope I'll live to relive
The days gone by
I hope I'm old before I die
Well tonight I'm gonna
Live for today
So come along for the ride
I hope I'm old before I die
She's not feeling stable
She's unable to breathe
Her heart's beating faster
So I'll ask her to leave
These are strange days,
We're living in today
Am I straight or gay?
I hope I'm old, before I die
I hope I'll live to see the day
The Pope gets high
I hope I'm old, I hope I'm old,
Before I die
Well tonight I'm gonna
Live for today
So come along for the ride
I hope I'm old before I die
Well these are strange days,
We're living in today
C'est la vie, I say, I say, I say
I hope I'm old (I hope I'm old)
Before I die
I hope I'll live to relive
The days gone by
I hope I'm old before I die
Well tonight I'm gonna
Live for today
So come along for the ride
I hope I'm old before I die
I hope I'm old
Before, old before I die
Old before, old before I die
Die, die, die
Old before, old before I die
Die, die, die
Meaning of Old Before I Die
“Old Before I Die” is a chaotic and strangely beautiful reflection on embracing the absurdities of life and accepting mortality. Robbie Williams, through frantic repetition and surreal imagery, expresses a desire to be utterly consumed by experience before his final days – “I hope I’m old, before I die.” The song isn't about a linear progression but rather a yearning for a life lived intensely, marked by bizarre encounters like a high-flying Pope and an unstable lover. There’s a palpable sense of anxiety and disorientation conveyed through lines like "Am I straight or gay?" highlighting the confusion and questioning inherent in searching for meaning. Ultimately, it's a plea to seize every moment, to “live for today,” even if that means embracing chaos and accepting a strange, unpredictable end – “Die, die, die.” The repeated mantra underscores a desperate wish to be fully alive before fading away.
