THE SCRIPT
So just don't regret anything. Till it's to late, it's not too late Our hearts are hungry for food that won't come We could make a feast from these crumbs And we're all staring down the barrel of a gun So if your life flashed before you What would you wish you would've done Yeah. There loss find sum1 else or find A way to get them to like you inyways back on topic. Yeah, we gotta start lookin' at the hands of the time we've been given If this is all we got, then we gotta start thinkin' If every second counts on a clock that's tickin' Gotta live like we're dying We only got 36 400 seconds in a day to Turn it all around or to throw it all away We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em while we got the chance to say Gotta live like we're dying And if your plane fell out of the skies Who would you call with your last goodbye? Sometimes we fall down, can't get back up We're hiding behind skin that's too tough How come we don't say I love you enough? You never know a good thing 'til it's gone Yeah, gotta start lookin' at the hands of the time we've been given If this is all we got, then we gotta start thinkin' If every second counts on a clock that's tickin' Gotta live like we're dying We only got 36 400 seconds in a day to Turn it all around or to throw it all away We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em while we got the chance to say Gotta live like we're dying, oh, like we're dying, oh, like we're dying Like we're dying, oh, like we're dying We only got 36 400 seconds in a day to Turn it all around or to throw it all away We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em while we got the chance to say Gotta live like we're dying. We all have purpose in this life and there's a significance to it. If you want to do something, just do it.
The Script
Sometimes we fall down and can't get back up We're hiding behind skin that's too tough How come we don't say I love you enough? Should be so careful who we left out of our lives And when we long for absolution, there will be no one on the line Yeah, we gotta start lookin' at the hands of the time we've been given If this is all we got, then we gotta start thinkin' If every second counts on a clock that's tickin' Gotta live like we're dying We only got 36 400 seconds in a day to Turn it all around or to throw it all away We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em while we got the chance to say Gotta live like we're dying, oh, like we're dying, oh, like we're dying Like we're dying, oh, like we're dying We only got 36 400 seconds in a day to Turn it all around or to throw it all away We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em while we got the chance to say Gotta live like we're dying You never know a good thing 'til it's gone You never see a crash 'til it's head on Why do we think we're right when we're dead wrong? It's saying that you only get to live one life. Just like, if you love someone, tell them. Live like you know you're about to die in the next 30 minutes. If they don't feel the same, take the rejection. Sometimes we fall down and can't get back up We're hiding behind skin that's too tough How come we don't say I love you enough Till it's too late, it's not too late Our hearts are hungry for a food that won't come We could make a feast from these crumbs And we're all staring down the barrel of a gun So if your life flashed before you What would you wish you would've done Yeah, gotta start Lookin' at the hand of the time we've been given here This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin' If every second counts on a clock that's tickin' Gotta live like we're dying Yeah, we got 86400 seconds in a day To turn it all around or throw it all away We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em While we got the chance to say Gotta live like we're dying And if your plane fell out of the skies Who would you call with your last goodbyes Should be so careful who we let fall out of our lives So when we long for absolution There'll be no one on the line Yeah, gotta start Lookin' at the hand of the time we've been given here This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin' if Every second counts on a clock that's tickin' Gotta live like we're dying We only got 86400 seconds in a day To turn it all around or throw it all away We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em While we got the chance to say Gotta live like we're dying Like we're dying, oh Like we're dying Like we're dying, oh Like we're dying We only got 86400 seconds in a day To turn it all around or throw it all away We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em While we got the chance to say Gotta live like we're dying You never know a good thing till it's gone You never see a crash until it's head on All these people right when we're dead wrong You never know a good thing till it's gone Yeah, gotta start Lookin' at the hand of the time we've been given here This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin' if Every second counts on a clock that's tickin' Gotta live like we're dying We only got 86400 seconds in a day To turn it all around or throw it all away We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em While we got the chance to say Gotta live like we're dying Like we're dying, oh Like we're dying Like we're dying, oh Like we're dying We only got 86400 seconds in a day To turn it all around or throw it all away We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em While we got the chance to say Gotta live like we're dying Live like we're dying.
