Live Like We’re Dying Lyrics By Kris Allen

    ohh yeah yeah

    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 it’s to late it’s not too late

    our hearts are hungry for a food that won’t come
    and 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

    yeah we gotta start
    looking at the hands of the time we’ve been given
    if this is all we got then we gotta start thinking
    if every second counts on a clock that’s ticking
    gotta live like we’re dying
    we only got 86400 seconds in a day to
    turn it all around or to throw it all away
    gotta tell them that we love them while we got the chance to say
    gotta live like we’re dying

    and if your plane fell out of the skies
    who would you call with your last goodbye
    should be so careful who we let fall out our lives
    ’cause when we long for absolution
    there’ll no one on the line yeah

    yeah we gotta start
    looking at the hands of the time we’ve been given
    if this is all we got then we gotta start thinking
    if every second counts on a clock that’s ticking
    gotta live like we’re dying
    we only got 86400 seconds in a day to
    turn it all around or to throw it all away
    gotta tell them that we love them while we got the chance to say
    gotta live like we’re dying
    like we’re dying oh like we’re dying
    like we’re dying oh like we’re dying

    yeah we gotta start
    looking at the hands of the time we’ve been given
    if this is all we got then we gotta start thinking
    if every second counts on a clock that’s ticking
    gotta live like we’re dying
    yeah mmm

    you never know a good thing till it’s gone
    you never see a crash till it’s head on
    why do we think we’re right when we’re dead wrong
    you never know a good thing till it’s gone

    yeah we gotta start
    looking at the hands of the time we’ve been given
    if this is all we got then we gotta start thinking
    if every second counts on a clock that’s ticking
    gotta live like we’re dying
    we only got 86400 seconds in a day to
    turn it all around or to throw it all away
    gotta tell them that we love them while we got the chance to say
    gotta live like we’re dying
    like we’re dying oh like we’re dying
    like we’re dying oh like we’re dying
    we only got 86400 seconds in a day to
    turn it all around or to throw it all away
    gotta tell them that we love them while we got the chance to say
    gotta live like we’re dying
