lyrics

Live In

all we can do is live in
what time we're given
only so much to spend

all we can do is live in
what time we're given
before you reach the end

each day
could be a go to the beach day
eat the juiciest peach day
whatever makes you smile

some days
can be go go go days
but don't you think that it's ok
when it's worth your while

all we can do is live in
what time we're given
and no one really knows

all we can do is live in
what time we're given
how much is left to go

childhood
not everybody had it so good
if we could do it over some would
how far would you go

and who would you be
you couldn't choose another family
but all your friends and your surroundings
are under your control

all we can do is live in
what time we're given
go ahead and let them know

all we can do is live in
what time we're given
how much you love them so

violence
getting tired of the mindless
those who never had the guidance
they are the most afraid

there is evil
around defenseless people
now the gentle and the feeble
can never find their way

stunted
at job you never wanted
every now and then you're haunted
makes you want to cry

if you hadn't been grounded
could've failed until you found it
and then finally amounted
to somebody you like

we all die
we hardly ever get to say bye
become an angel in the big sky
if you paid your dues

wish I knew it was coming
if there were some kind of warning
we would do only what's important
with the ones we choose

all we can do is live in
what time we're given
not everyone survives

all we can do is live in
what time we're given
go on you're still alive
