Jonny Lang - Dying To Live lyrics

rate me

You know I've heard it said theres beauty in distortion

By some people who withdraw to find their head

And they say there is humor in misfortune

No, I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead

Why am I fighting to live

If I'm just living to fight

Why am I trying to see

When there aint nothing in sight

Why am I trying to give

When noone gives me a try

Why am I dying to live

If I'm just living to die

You know some people say that values are subjective

But theyre just speaking words

That someone else has said

And so they live and fight and kill with no objective

Sometimes its hard to tell the living from the dead

You know I used to weave

My words into confusion

And so I hope you'll understand me

When I'm through

You know I used to live my life as an illusion

But reality wil make my dream come true

So I'll keep fighting to live

Till theres no reason to fight

And I'll keep trying to see

Until the end is in sight

You know I'm trying to give

So come on

Give me a try

You know I'm dying to live

Until I'm ready to die
