Live in Life (Live)

He died holding four kings and an ace

The smell of foreign wine and faint smile on his face

Hushed words could be barely overheard

To go so shamelessly, oh, what a waste

But then a girl in black took the wake aback

When she spoke up with an oddly cheerful grin

It seems your friend has found a happy end

Is enjoying every day such a sin?

After all, you've got to live in life, and leave the dying to the dead

If your flame is burning strong, why watch the shadows on the wall?

Instead of living life without regret

So you can see what lies beyond the border when you're gone

She died, skin stretched thin across her bones

With shelves of medicine to stop the agonizing groans

Each cent and precious second spent

Trying desperately to stave off the unknown

When the director saw this duel with natural laws

She seemed both disappointed and amused

Why sell your soul for such a futile goal?

It's a battle that you're destined to lose

After all, you've got to live in life, and leave the dying to the dead

'Cause you can't outrun the wind, you'll just be running out of breath

Instead of living life without regret

So you can see what lies beyond the border when you're gone

Death has no favorite child

He visits those who wait, and he visits those who ought to have a while

But fighting fate has a price

Disturbing the order of things means you need to make a sacrifice

In the end, you've got to live in life, and leave the dying to the dead

What's the point of sinking down in dread and losing hope?

When you could go and keep on living life without regret

So you can see what lies beyond the border when you're

Gone is gone, so make the most of what you've got

You should have a little fun before your body turns to rot

So go and live your life without regrets, or you won't see what lies beyond

The border when you're gone
