(Verse 1)
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,
Till its too late? Its not too late.
(Pre-Chorus 1)
Our hearts are hungry for a food that won't come
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
Looking at the hands of the time we've been given if
This is all we got and we gotta start thinking it
Every second counts on a clock that's ticking
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 got to tell them that we love them
While we got the chance to say
Got to live like we're dying
(Verse 2)
And if your plane fell out of the skies;
Who would you call with your last goodbyes?
(Pre-Chorus 2)
Should be so careful who we live out our lives.
So when we long for absolution;
There'll no one on the line.
CHORUS
Like we're dying oh like we're dying [x2]
Return to Chorus
(Bridge:)
You never know a good thing till its gone;
You never see a crash until its head on.
Why we think we're right when we're dead wrong?
You never know a good thing till its gone!
