I'm taking my time, but it's ticking away
I never tried 'cos you're not there anyway
A seventeenth lie is all it would take
To recognise all the storylines that you have escaped
So look alive, make your life worth living
Don't look back, there's no use in wishing
Until you know, but you keep on giving
I'm coming down fast, but I'm fading away
You know it can't last, but you wish I could stay
Pushing down fast, but you're leading the way
Gripping on tight, but you're slipping away
So look alive, make your life worth living
Don't look back, there's no use in wishing
Until you know, but you keep on giving
So look alive, make your life worth living
Don't look back, there's no use in wishing
Until you know, but you keep on giving
