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
|
|
[Chorus]
|
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
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
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
|
