I feel my mind dwindling with time, the tears dried but yet I'm still held a victim of the crime
Yesterday and tomorrow are in my minds eye, while today slips away and my fate unwinds
I reached an age where life begins to take, friends flip, family dies, lovers leave, your soul breaks
Fantasies are dissolved and faith fades, If you seen the way I stumbled you would learn what grace takes 

But when I wake up in the morning, I feel my body ache
Living with the pain of mourning my mistakes 
And the times are changing faster than I care to face
Sometimes I wish I could just pump the brakes 
But the clocks keep turning with sun on me
My anger stems from what they should have done for me 
Spent my time doing what others want from me
But never really asked what did I want from me

Did I live a life of love, (I'm afraid)
Did I go far enough (I'm afraid) 
I wonder when I lose your touch (I'm afraid)
Was I worthy of your trust (I'm afraid)

Don't you know that I got one life, one life
Make sure I live it right, live it right
Don't you know that I got one life, one life
May not always get it right, get it right

Now I know that I got one life, one life 
Did I live a life of love, (I'm afraid)
That's why it's worth a try, worth a try 
Did I go far enough (I'm afraid) 
Now I know that I got one life, one life 
I wonder when I lose your touch (I'm afraid)
That's why I'm feeling high, feeling high 
Was I worthy of your trust (I'm afraid)

I need to swallow capsules to make my mind still
Or negative energy will make the prophecy fufill
I have no idea if there's a second act
Can't take a fantastical founder as fact
Sometimes my mind wonders if you're really done yet
Life lived with regret, goals not accomplished, don't take the exit
It'd be okay if I was secure, but life is pain, and is fatality the only cure

Regardless of thoughts that race, the heart does the same
I don't want life to end, and leave my name with shame
I'm afraid of no one reminiscing my tale
And if they do thinking I hid behind a veil

Sometimes you give into hypocrisy & sin 
Charity is nothing you can measure & win
I hope when I return to nothing
It's apparent I was good, and wasn't bluffin

Three times I almost gave my soul to spent 
But each time I tried my best to prevent
If there's a father he might not want his son back yet
But when the time comes it'll make me sweat 

The thought of being nothing makes me insane
Is reality just stuck inside my brain
Will I live on when my flesh has rotten
Or do we all end up a pile of ash and forgotten

Did I live a life of love, (I'm afraid)
Did I go far enough (I'm afraid) 
I wonder when I lose your touch (I'm afraid)
Was I worthy of your trust (I'm afraid)

Don't you know that I got one life, one life
Make sure I live it right, live it right
Don't you know that I got one life, one life
May not always get it right, get it right

Now I know that I got one life, one life 
Did I live a life of love, (I'm afraid)
That's why it's worth a try, worth a try 
Did I go far enough (I'm afraid) 
Now I know that I got one life, one life 
I wonder when I lose your touch (I'm afraid)
That's why I'm feeling high, feeling high 
Was I worthy of your trust (I'm afraid)
