Lucky is the fourth track on the album "All My Demons Greeting Me As A Friend". It was written by AURORA and Odd Martin Skålnes and produced by Skålnes and Magnus Skylstad.
About the song
AURORA wrote this when she was only 9 years old.
She explained the song's meaning to The 405: "It's about realizing that you've been through dark tunnels in life, but still walking forward, both feet strong. We are all lucky to be alive, it's an important thing to remember."[1]
Lyrics
When, when I am down
I lay my hands upon this ground
For the thousandth time
I call him in, his earth is mine
Before I make the offering
Remember all the faces that I've seen
Now all the marks have settled on my skin
From all the different places that I've been
That I've been
And I feel the light for the very first time
Not anybody knows that I am lucky to be alive
And I feel the light for the very first time
Not anybody knows that I am lucky to be alive
War inside my mind
Behind my eyes, is coming down
For the thousandth time
I feel too numb to even mind
Before I make the offering
Remember all the faces that I've seen
Now all the marks have settled on my skin
From all the different places that I've been
That I've been
And I feel the light for the very first time
Not anybody knows that I am lucky to be alive
And I feel the light for the very first time
Not anybody knows that I am lucky to be alive
I, I don't know where I am, or where I'll go
Where to even begin when I know
What lies behind makes no sense in my mind
But I know that it's time to let go
And I feel the light for the very first time
Not anybody knows that I am lucky to be alive
And I feel the light for the very first time
Not anybody knows that I am lucky to be alive
I'm lucky to be alive
I'm lucky to be alive
