Yesterday I felt so afraid of dying
The air within me froze
And I saw no sense in trying
But today when I awoke
Something inside me spoke
"You're still breathing
Ain't that a chance to be alive again?"
And I'm trying
I'm trying
Ain't gonna waste a bit of this life
Ain't gonna wait around to die
I'm trying
When I wake in the dark will you be there?
When there's light, could it be ours to share?
So much left to see
So much left to be
So much left to write across the air
I'm trying
I'm trying
Ain't gonna waste a bit of this life
Ain't gonna wait around to die
I'm trying
Thinking tonight about a friend of mine
Death will have no mercy, or give a reason why
Sometimes I see you in a crowd
I hear you like you're here right now
Saying "Just do all you can while there's time."
And I'm trying
I'm trying
Ain't gonna waste a bit of this life
Ain't gonna wait around to die
I'm trying
(Last time
Finish it right here)
