E.R.I.E. - Life And/Or Death Lyrics

It's the passing of time
It's the learning of minds
It's finding forgiveness
It's loving the lows and the highs

It's the spring in your step
It's leaving your worries behind
You want an escape
But are you willing to fight with your "I's"?

Go find a new space away from the sun
When the races of man cannot be won

It's a leveling high
It's one day at a time
"Just try not to fight this
Just give me a nod and a smile"

It's the passage of light
Goddamn it's good to be alive, sometimes
The feeling of reverence fading with every hour

I'll find my own place away from it all
'Cus the sum of my parts don't add up to whole

I don't wanna live
But I sure as hell don't wanna die

I don't wanna live
But I sure as hell don't wanna die

I don't wanna live...

I want that first-kiss feeling injected straight into my veins
I want to show the world there's more than just the elements of pain
'Cus we're all lookin' out for answers
And we're workin' through the trials
Aren't you tired of wasting energy on a manufactured smile?
'Cus it's okay to want to cry
It's okay to want to die
It's okay to feel like nothing in your world is going right
But throw your fists into the air
And say "To hell with all this pain
I'm gonna conquer every fight until I feel like me again!"

There's more than death for all of us
When the weight of the world becomes too much

I don't wanna live
But I sure as hell don't wanna die

I don't wanna live
But I sure as hell don't wanna die

I don't wanna live
But I sure as hell don't wanna die

I don't wanna live
But I sure as hell don't wanna die
