I saw Jacob, he lay in the street
<br />He said the air out here is like amphetamine
<br />And I never ever wanna sleep again
<br />I wanna live till I die
<br />
<br />The took all his money and all that he had
<br />But he smiled with his eyes
<br />and his face was bright red
<br />And spit would run from his mouth when he said
<br />I wanna live till I die
<br />
<br />'Cause I am alive and there's blood in my arms
<br />This is a day that is brighter than bombs
<br />This is a day that is brighter than bombs
<br />I will live till I die
<br />Till I die
<br />
<br />There's more inside of me than skin and bones
<br />I am born again today and
<br />all my sins are washed away
<br />There's more inside of me than skin and bones
<br />
<br />Jacob sat on the roof and he said
<br />Some day the earth will cast out its dead
<br />If you dwell in the dust then wake up and sing
<br />I will live till I die
<br />
<br />Jacob smiled when he said to me
<br />I am not waiting on the Red Sea
<br />To open up and rain pearls on me
<br />I will live till I die
<br />Till I die
<br />
<br />There's more inside of me than skin and bones
<br />I am born again today
<br />and all my sins are washed away
<br />There's more inside of me than skin and bones
<br />
<br />As long as I live and there's blood in my arms
<br />This is a day that is brighter than bombs
<br />This is a day that is brighter than bombs
<br />This is a day that is brighter than bombs.<br /><br />
