Dying For

Was your life worth dying for?

Did you stare down a wolf at the door

Like you carried the keys of the cross

And covered the cost

With only your innocence lost?

It won't happen again

And nothing ever makes it out alive

We were chasing the wind

Baby, we were running out of time

Our sins would be heaven sent

Under the sediment

Already skeletons

Somewhere irrelevant

Where every pontiff and prophet and poet

All wind up the same way

Weighing the end reward

Was your life worth dying for?

Did you stare down a wolf at the door?

Like you carried the keys of the cross

And covered the cost

With only your innocence

Tell me young man would you say

When the end was a moment away

You swallowed the pain without any regret

And settled your debt

If nothing is permanent

Was your life worth dying for?

Oh-oh, whoa-oh, oh, oh-oh

Whoa-oh, oh, oh-oh

Whoa-oh, oh, oh-oh

Was your life worth dying for?

I'd face the music

Be killed or kill my excuses

But wasted the days in ways I didn't know

Like Joni said it

"You're never gonna get it

Until it's gone"

Our sins would be heaven sent

Under the sediment

Already skeletons

Somewhere irrelevant

I hope you captured

The dream you were after

If this ain't the rapture

I'm asking you

Was your life worth dying for?

Did you stare down a wolf at the door

Like you carried the keys of the cross

And covered the cost

With only your innocence

Tell me young man would you say

When the end was a moment away

You swallowed the pain without any regret

And settled your debt

If nothing is permanent

Was your life worth dying for?

Oh-oh, whoa-oh, oh, oh-oh

Whoa-oh, oh, oh-oh

Whoa-oh, oh, oh-oh

Was your life worth dying for?

Oh-oh, whoa-oh, oh, oh-oh

Whoa-oh, oh, oh-oh

Whoa-oh, oh, oh-oh

Was your life worth dying for?
