Kris Allen – Live Like We're Dying

Sometimes we fall down and can't get back up  
We're hiding behind skin that's too tough  
 [bad word] we don't say I love you enough  
Till it's too late, it's not too late  
Our hearts are hungry for a food that [bad word]  
We could make a feast from these [bad word]  
And we're all staring down the barrel of a gun  
So if your life flashed before you, what would you wish you would've done  
 
 [bad word]   
Yeah, gotta start  
Looking at the hand of the time we've been given here  
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin' it  
Every second counts on a clock that's tickin'  
Gotta Live Like We're Dying  
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day  
To turn it all around or throw it all away  
We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em while we got the chance to say,  
Gotta live like we're dying  
 
And if you plane fell out of the skies  
Who would you call with your last goodbyes  
Should be so careful who we live out of our lives  
So when we long for absolution, there'll be no one on the line  
 
Yeah, gotta start  
Looking at the hand of the time we've been given here  
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin' it  
Every second counts on a clock that's tickin'  
Gotta live like we're dying  
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day  
To turn it all around or throw it all away  
We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em while we got the chance to say,  
Gotta live like we're dying  
 
Like we're dying  
Like we're dying  
Like we're dying  
Like we're dying  
 
Yeah, gotta start  
Looking at the hand of the time we've been given here  
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin' it  
Every second counts on a clock that's tickin'  
Gotta live like we're dying  
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day  
To turn it all around or throw it all away  
We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em while we got the chance to say,  
Gotta live like we're dying  
 
You never know a good thing until it's gone  
You never see a crash until it's head on  
All these people right when we're dead wrong,  
You never know a good thing till it's gone  
 
Yeah, gotta start  
Looking at the hand of the time we've been given here  
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin' it  
Every second counts on a clock that's tickin'  
Gotta live like we're dying  
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day  
To turn it all around or throw it all away  
We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em while we got the chance to say,  
Gotta live like we're dying  
 
Like we're dying  
Like we're dying  
Like we're dying  
Like we're dying  
 
Yeah, gotta start  
Looking at the hand of the time we've been given here  
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin' it
