Paramaecium - Live For The Day lyrics

rate me

The light of morn pours through the window

To settle on pages torn

The book, so old, vainly the truth waits for

Someone to read but is untold

Time is running out for the answer is clearer now

Behind the ordinary lives something quite impure

A latent visionary sees that which can't endure

They take away the sadness, they take away the pain

They say she'll never have to think for herself again

Live for the day, live life the way you want to

Give what you may

But don't let them take life from you

Too young, too shy, but even her ancestors

Knew not when they would die

The sands of time slipping away

Whilst she meditates on her last crime

Time is running out for the answer is clearer now

Behind the ordinary lives something quite impure

Holy they masquerade and purport to hold the cure

They take away the sadness, they take away the pain

They say she'll never have to think for herself again

Live for the day, live and do what you want to

Give what you may

But don't let them take life from you

Live for the day, live life the way you want to

Give what you may

But don't let them take life from you

They're counting the sands of time

They're touching the sound of moonlight

They're sealing the book of life

They're taking the truth from time

Behind the ordinary lives something quite impure

The taste of innocence found

That taste which can't endure

They take away the sadness, they take away the pain

They say she'll never have to think for herself again

Live for the day, live and do what you want to

Give what you may

But don't let them take life from you

Live for the day, live life the way you want to

Give what you may

But don't let them take life from you
