lirik lagu jonny lang – dying to live
you know i’ve heard it said there’s beauty in distortion
by some people who withdraw to find their head
and they say there is humor in misfortune
no, i wonder if they’ll laugh when i am dead
[chorus]
why am i fighting to live
if i’m just living to fight
why am i trying to see
if there ain’t nothing in sight
why am i trying to give
when no one gives me a try
why am i dying to live
if i’m just living to die
you know some people say that values are subjective
but they’re just speaking words
that someone else has said
and so they live and fight and kill with no objective
sometimes it’s hard to tell the living from the dead
[chorus]
why am i fighting to live
if i’m just living to fight
why am i trying to see
if there ain’t nothing in sight
why am i trying to give
when no one gives me a try
why am i dying to live
if i’m just living to die
[break]
you know i used to weave
my words into confusion
and so i hope you’ll understand me
when i’m through
you know i used to live my life as an illusion
but reality will make my dream come true
so i’ll keep fighting to live
till there’s no reason to fight
and i’ll keep trying to see
until the end is in sight
you know i’m trying to give
so come on
give me a try
you know i’m dying to live
until i’m ready to die
[outro]
you know i’m trying to live
until i’m ready to die
