Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh If you could see your seconds in an hourglass If you could see the minutes of a life you had Would you run and would you try To win it back? If you can see a future in a photograph If you could see the light that you wish you had Could you be strong and carry on With what you have? Why we wasting life? Should be chasing life If we're breathing for the very last time I don't wanna hold on to goodbyes If there's no tomorrow You better make it last tonight If we're standing when the walls come down If we make it 'til the final round If we're here tomorrow We'll live it better than we did last night Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh If you were on your knees, would you take a stand? If you were in deep, would you take my hand? Could you lie and lose your pride To live again? If you could wake up and see through yourself Could you find a room to blame someone else? Could you change in just a day And cry for help? Why we wasting life? Should be chasing life If we're breathing for the very last time I don't wanna hold on to goodbyes If there's no tomorrow You better make it last tonight If we're standing when the walls come down If we make it 'til the final round If we're here tomorrow We'll live it better than we did last night 'Cause you're not alone, no, you're not alone We've all been wasting time No, it's not too late for us to make it right But we still have today If we're breathing for the very last time I don't wanna hold on to goodbyes If there's no tomorrow You better make it last tonight If we're standing when the walls come down If we make it 'til the final round If we're here tomorrow We'll live it better than we did last night
