Lyrics

So please don't ask me how I end-ed up at my wits end And brea-king down Pa-ges torn from books we ne-ver read, Cause we're plugged in-to this grid. Don't pull this plug right now, Then we'd real-ly have to live. When I die, will they re-mem-ber not What I did, but what I ha-ven't done? It's not the end that I fear with each breath It's life that sca-ares me to death. When we built these dreams on sand How they all slipped through our hands And this mi-ight be our on-ly chance Let's take this one day at a time I'll hold your hand if you hold mine The time that we ki-ill keeps us a-live. Your words won't save me now. I'm at the edge fee-ling the sweat drip from my brow. "Get a grip on your-self" is what they say, Eve-ry ho-ur, eve-ry day. Hands o-ver my ears, I've been screa-ming all these years! When I die, will they re-mem-ber not What I did, but what I ha-ven't done? It's not the end that I fear with each breath It's life that sca-ares me to death. When we built these dreams on sand How they all slipped through our hands And this mi-ight be our on-ly chance Let's take this one day at a time I'll hold your hand if you hold mine The time that we ki-ill keeps us a-live. We came in search of an-swers! We left emp-ty han-ded a-gain! Shots fired in-to the sky... Are now re-tur-ning! Where the fuck will you hide? When I die, will they re-mem-ber not What I did, but what I ha-ven't done? It's not the end that I fear with each breath It's life that sca-ares me to death. When we built these dreams on sand How they all slipped through our hands And this mi-ight be our on-ly chance Let's take this one day at a time I'll hold your hand if you hold mine The time that we ki-ill keeps us a-live. When we built these dreams on sand How they all slipped through our hands And this mi-ight be our on-ly chance Let's take this one day at a time I'll hold your hand if you hold mine The time that we ki-ill keeps us a-live.
