Lyrics
Dear Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don’t know if I believe in a God
Don’t know if I believe there’s not
Don’t know if I believe in fate
Don’t know if I believe we make our own way
I love, I lose, I scar when I bruise
Why, dear life?
Sometimes I feel you carry me
Then I feel you letting go
No ties, I’m wild, running free
Am I a fool to think I’m in control?
Should I lay back and let the tide wash over me or fight?
Dear life, what do you hold for me?
Maybe I should believe what I’m told
Maybe I should believe what glitters is gold
Maybe I should say what’s on my mind
Maybe if I keep my mouth shut I’ll be fine
I hate, I burn
I’m blessed and cursed
Why, dear life?
Sometimes I feel you carry me
Then I feel you letting go
No ties, I’m wild, running free
Am I a fool to think I’m in control?
Should I lay back and let the tide wash over me or fight?
Dear life
The only thing I know for sure
We’re not getting out of this alive
The only thing I know for sure
We’re gonna be alright
The only thing I know for sure
We’re not getting out of this alive
The only thing I know for sure
We’re gonna be alright
Sometimes I feel you carry me
Then I feel you letting go
No ties, I’m wild, running free
Am I a fool to think I’m in control?
Should I lay back and let the tide wash over me or fight?
Dear life, what do you hold for me?
