Live Like We\u0027re Dying - Kris Allen (lyrics) Oh, yeah, yeah Sometimes we fall down, can\u0027t get back up We\u0027re hiding behind skin that\u0027s too tough How come we don\u0027t say \u0022I love you\u0022 enough? \u0027Til it\u0027s too late, it\u0027s not too late Our hearts are hungry for a food that won\u0027t come And we could make a feast from these crumbs And we\u0027re all staring down the barrel of a gun So if your life flashed before you What would you wish you would\u0027ve done? Yeah, we gotta start Lookin\u0027 at the hands of the time we\u0027ve been given If this is all we got, then we gotta start thinkin\u0027 If every second counts on a clock that\u0027s tickin\u0027 Gotta live like we\u0027re dying We only got 86, 400 seconds in a day to Turn it all around or to throw it all away We gotta tell \u0027em that we love \u0027em while we got the chance to say Gotta live like we\u0027re dying, oh And if your plane fell out of the skies Who would you call with your last goodbye? Should be so careful who we left out of our lives \u0027Cause when we long for absolution There\u0027ll be no one on the line Yeah, we gotta start Lookin\u0027 at the hands of the time we\u0027ve been given If this is all we got, then we gotta start thinkin\u0027 If every second counts on a clock that\u0027s tickin\u0027 Gotta live like we\u0027re dying We only got 86, 400 seconds in a day to Turn it all around or to throw it all away We gotta tell \u0027em that we love \u0027em while we got the chance to say Gotta live like we\u0027re dying, oh Like we\u0027re dying, oh, like we\u0027re dying Like we\u0027re dying, oh, like we\u0027re dying We only got 86, 400 seconds in a day to Turn it all around or to throw it all away We gotta tell \u0027em that we love \u0027em while we got the chance to say Gotta live like we\u0027re dying You never know a good thing \u0027til it\u0027s gone You never see a crash \u0027til it\u0027s head on Why do we think we\u0027re right when we\u0027re dead wrong? You never know a good thing \u0027til it\u0027s gone Yeah, we gotta start Lookin\u0027 at the hands of the time we\u0027ve been given If this is all we got, then we gotta start thinkin\u0027 If every second counts on a clock that\u0027s tickin\u0027 Gotta live like we\u0027re dying We only got 86, 400 seconds in a day to Turn it all around or to throw it all away We gotta tell \u0027em that we love \u0027em while we got the chance to say Gotta live like we\u0027re dying, oh Like we\u0027re dying, oh, like we\u0027re dying Like we\u0027re dying, oh, like we\u0027re dying We only got 86, 400 seconds in a day to Turn it all around or to throw it all away We gotta tell \u0027em that we love \u0027em while we got the chance to say Gotta live like we\u0027re dying
