Lyrics
You're so far away from home
And I am the static on a broken payphone
And as the flickered streetlights try in vain
To light the way, I'll stray from them
Taking my life into my hands
This is the coldest that I have ever been
And every tired heartbeat pulls and strains
To find the strength to fill my veins tonight
So if I die in my sleep
Don't light a candle for me
For every heart that I broke
For every lie that I spoke
If I don't make it to the sunrise
Was I good enough in your eyes?
Did I do everything I could
To lead the life that I should?
Now as the years leave their mark on my face
They take a piece of my soul I can never replace
And I hope that you know how I loved you to death
I'll see you when we're laid to rest, for good
So if I die in my sleep
Don't light a candle for me
For every heart that I broke
For every lie that I spoke
If I don't make it to the sunrise
Was I good enough in your eyes?
Did I do everything I could
To lead the life that I should?
We only get one chance to make it
We only get one chance to do this right
We only get one chance to make it
Did I do everything I could to fly?
Well, I'm a rocket now, a star called night
(We only get one chance to make it)
I will be flying away to wake you from the night
(We only get one chance to do this right)
If you held me and changed my path from right
(We only get one chance to make it)
To make it alright, alright again
(Did I do everything I could to fly?)
We only get one chance to make it
(We only get one chance to make it)
I will be flying away to wake you from the night
(We only get one chance to do this right)
We only get one chance to live this life
(We only get one chance to make it)
If you held me and changed my path from right
(We only get one chance to do this right)
To make it alright, alright again
(Did I do everything I could to fly?)
So if I die in my sleep
Don't light a candle for me
For every heart that I broke
For every lie that I spoke
If I don't make it to the sunrise
(We only get one chance to make it)
Was I good enough in your eyes?
(We only get one chance to do this right)
Did I do everything I could
(We only get one chance to make it)
To lead the life that I should?
