Sometimes we fall down and can't get back up   We're hiding behind skin that's too tough   How come we don't say "I love you" enough   Till it's to late, it's not too late      Our hearts are hungry for a food that won't come   And we could make a feast from these crumbs   And we're all staring down the barrel of a gun   So if your life flashed before you   What would you wish you would've done      Yeah... gotta start   Looking at the hand of the time we've been given here   This is all we got and we gotta start pickin' it   Every second counts on a clock that's tickin'   Gotta live like we're dying      We only got   86 400 seconds in a day to   Turn it all around or throw it all away   We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em   While we got the chance to say   Gotta live like we're dying      And if your plane fell out of the skies   Who would you call with your last goodbye?   Should be so careful who we live out our lives   So when we long for absolution   There'll no one on the line      Yeah... gotta start   Lookin' at the hand of the time we've been given here   This is all we got and we gotta start pickin' it   Every second counts on a clock that's tickin'   Gotta live like we're dying      We only got   86 400 seconds in a day to   Turn it all around or throw it all away   We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em   While we got the chance to say   Gotta live like we're dying      Like we're dying oh-- like we're dying [x2]      We only got   86 400 seconds in a day to   turn it all around or throw it all away   we gotta tell 'em that we love 'em   while we got the chance to say   gotta live -- like we're dying      You never know a good thing till it's gone   You never see a crash until it's head on   Everything go right when we're dead wrong   You never know a good thing till it's gone      Yeah... gotta start   Lookin' at the hand of the time we've been given here   This is all we got and we gotta start pickin' it   Every second counts on a clock that's tickin'   Gotta live like we're dying      We only got   86 400 seconds in a day to   Turn it all around or throw it all away   We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em   While we got the chance to say   Gotta live like we're dying      Like we're dying oh -- like we're dying   Like we're dying oh -- like we're dying      We only got   86 400 seconds in a day to   Turn it all around or throw it all away   We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em   While we got the chance to say   Gotta live like we're dying   Live like we're dying
