Live Once

I don't speak often cause I don't speak well

So every song I write has a story to tell

Of all I've learned living with myself

So these are my pearls of wisdom in a nutshell

Oh you only live once so you'd better think twice

This day will go before you know so don't waste your time

And when you're standing on a cloud or when you've fallen on the ground

You've gotta have something, something to sing about

I don't know much, that much is true

The queries are endless, my answers are few

But life has caused me to conclude

I can face what I don't know

By singing about what I do

Oh you only live once so you'd better think twice

This day will go before you know so don't waste your time

And when you're lost inside yourself and you can't find your way out

You've gotta find something, something to sing about

The world has a way of wearing you down

And time's not afraid to take its toll, oh no

But you can sing through anything as long as you know

What awaits you at the end of the road

Because you only live once

Yeah, you only live once so you'd better think twice

This day will go before you know so don't waste your time

At the end of the day, when you lay your head down

You've gotta have something, something to sing about
