When your life's around the corner
And there's only one chance to make it
'Be stupid to fake it
Or throw it all away
Not on purpose
Only inadvertent
The choice is wrong
But you'll live to see another day
So just wait a minute
Before we start pretending
What is here
And what is not
Cause once you've made it and you've prayed it
All there's left to do is take it
And leave the rest for us.
Cause once you've made it and you've prayed it
All there's left to do is take it
All there's left to do is take it
All there's left to do is take it
Is it just me
Or does everybody else agree
Am I a fiend
Or is that just how we all get by
Time after time
I make the same mistakes
I've tried to learn but
Nothing seems to take
So write if off
And send it away
To a better place
A better day
Cause once you've tasted and you're wasted
It's that much easier to face it
Just leave what's left for us
It's that much easier to face it
It's that much easier to face it
It's that much easier to face it
Wrong place, wrong time
Wrong venue, wrong signs
The voices were heard, but
In the wrong light
Cause once you've faded and you've traded
It's pretty damn hard to shake it
Just leave the rest for us
Leave whats left for us
They never leave the best for us
So please leave the rest for us
For us
For us
