Something I Need

I had a dream the other night
Bout how we only get one life
Woke me up right after 2
Stayed awake and stared at you
So I wouldn’t loose my mind
And I had the week that came from hell
And yes I know that you could tell
But you’re like the net under the ledge
Whether I go flying off the edge
You go flying off aswell
And if you only die once
I wanna die with
You got something I need
In this world full of people there’s one killing me
And if we only die once, I wanna die with you
You got something I need
In this world full of people there’s one killing me
And if we only die once, I wanna die with you
Last night I think I drank too much, yeah
Call it our temporary crunch
With broken words I’ve tried to say
"Honey don’t you be afraid"
If we got nothing, we got us, yeah
And if you only die once
I wanna die with
You got something I need
In this world full of people there’s one killing me
And if we only die once, I wanna die with you
You got something I need
In this world full of people there’s one killing me
And if we only die once, I wanna die with you
I know that we’re not the same
But I’m so damn glad that we made it
To this time, this time, around, yeah
You got something I need
Yeah, in this world full of people there’s one killing me
And if we only die once, I wanna die with you
You got something I need
In this world full of people there’s one killing me
And if we only die once, I wanna die with you
You got something I need
In this world full of people there’s one killing me
And if we only die once, I wanna die with you
And if we only die once, I wanna die
If we only live once, I wanna live with you
