I guess you've seen it all

All the darkness and the light
Reference to both the dark and light sides of life, implying a thorough understanding.
I'm just a criminal

Trying to steal some of your time

Maybe the thrill is gone

And the magic has died
Implies a loss of enchantment or wonder in life.
Here I am holding on

How do you know
Questioning how one determines when they are no longer relevant or needed.

How do you know?

It's hard to get away

With one foot stuck in the grave

Feels like a hurricane
