Athenaeum - Lifeline lyrics

rate me

You can find a way

To stop thinking about it

When every minute is a lifetime

The pain will go away

You won't believe but it's true

Just count the inches on your lifeline

And I hate to be the one

Telling you that everything's ok

Cause what kind of god would give you life

And take it all away?

Oh but I don't want to be in your life

If you don't

And I don't want to wake in your arms

If you won't

Be alive when I need you the most

Not to say that I won't

Grieve a little when you pass away

When you pass away

You can find a place

And start thinking about it

When every second is the right time

The pain will go away

You won't believe but it's true

Just count the inches on your lifeline

And I hate to be the one

Telling you that everything's ok

Cause what kind of god would give you life

And take it all away?

Oh but I don't want to be in your life

If you don't

And I don't want to wake in your arms

If you won't

Tell me everything you needed to be

Is everything that I am

Everything that you fear

About me

What you fear about me

You'll come back for all the wrong reasons

Maybe your life was out of season

You can't breathe

When you don't have a reason to die

And someday soon when the memory has faded

We'll defend all the lives we once hated

And I'll be there baby glad that you made it alive

I don't want to be in your life
