Lyrics of Live Like We're Dying by Kris Allen
verse
Oh, yeah, yeah
verse
Sometimes we fall down, can't get back up
We're hiding behind skin that's too tough
How come we don't say "I love you" enough?
'Til it's too late, it's not too late
Our hearts are hungry for a food that won't come
And we could make a feast from these crumbs
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?
chorus
Yeah, we gotta start
Lookin' at the hands of the time we've been given
If this is all we got, then we gotta start thinkin'
If 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 to 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, oh
verse
And if your plane fell out of the skies
Who would you call with your last goodbye?
Should be so careful who we left out of our lives
'Cause when we long for absolution
There'll be no one on the line
chorus
Yeah, we gotta start
Lookin' at the hands of the time we've been given
If this is all we got, then we gotta start thinkin'
If 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 to 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, oh
chorus
Like we're dying, oh, like we're dying
Like we're dying, oh, like we're dying
chorus
We only got 86,400 seconds in a day to
Turn it all around or to 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
bridge
You never know a good thing 'til it's gone
You never see a crash 'til it's head on
Why do we think we're right when we're dead wrong?
You never know a good thing 'til it's gone
chorus
Yeah, we gotta start
Lookin' at the hands of the time we've been given
If this is all we got, then we gotta start thinkin'
If 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 to 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, oh
chorus
Like we're dying, oh, like we're dying
Like we're dying, oh, like we're dying
outro
We only got 86,400 seconds in a day to
Turn it all around or to 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
