The ChickPeas - Live to Cry
Looking out my window and I'm watching half the world
I see my life and I know I haven't got a second chance
Creeping up the stairway is my opportune moment
I realize that I have to hold my head up and take a stance
The world is fast
And it can pass you by
Don't live the past
You'll only live a lie
Stepping into life trying to keep the upper hand
While all around me words of wisdom just bring me down
Laughing up their sleeves people think they know it all
They just don't understand that a real king doesn't need a crown
The world is fast
And it can pass you by
Don't live the past
You'll only live a lie
The world is cruel
And it can pass you by
Don't play the fool
You'll only live to cry
How many ways can I pretend
How many times can I defend
How many lives can I help mend
Before we reach the bitter end
The bitter end
Stepping into life trying to keep the upper hand
While all around me words of wisdom just bring me down
Laughing up their sleeves people think they know it all
They just don't understand that a real king doesn't need a crown
The world is fast
And it can pass you by
Don't live the past
You'll only live a lie
The world is cruel
And it can pass you by
Don't play the fool
You'll only live to cry
You'll only live to cry
