Lyrics

Live On

[Verse 1]

You know you're wrong

That you should know much better

You're coming on way too strong

A force gale in stormy weather

A cold wave crashing on

Across the ocean building pressure

And it'll go off before too long

And this is your life

[Chorus]

But you're giving it up this time

'Cause you can't live without it

You're giving it up this time

'Cause this is your life

Live on

[Verse 2]

It's out of your hands

It's not what you planned

But it keeps knockin' you over

And if you ask me

It's easy to see

How it keeps rippin' you off

You're on your own

'Cause it's just better that way

You're on your own

Yeah this is your life

[Chorus]

But you're giving it up this time

'Cause you can't live without it

You're giving it up this time

'Cause this is your life

[Bridge]

You're on your own

'Cause it's just better that way

You're on your own

Yeah this is your life

[Chorus]

You're giving it up this time

'Cause you can't live without it

You're giving it up this time

'Cause this is your life yeah

Giving it up this time

Live on

[Outro]

You're giving it up this time

You're giving it up this time

Live on
