Frank Bengier - One Eye On The Living

With wings of golden fire I stand at the edge of an ancient sea
Burning like the pyre Byron swam for his drowned friend Shelly

He went ahead with his life
With his life
Breathing it like fire
With one eye on the living and one eye on the pyre

He was flying high
As far as he knew, he was the only one
Never said goodbye
You never do when you soar that close to the sun

He went ahead with his life
With his life
Breathing in like fire
With one eye on the living and one eye on the pyre

We were all turned to ashes swore it was the end
Now I'm standing on this stage in Phoenix
Where we get to be born again

It's always good to get a new life
In this one we spent every last dime
Sometimes when you swear that it's all over
You get to rise up one more time

So go ahead with your life
With your life
And breathe it in like fire
With one eye on the living and one eye on the pyre

I want to see you try to make a run for it
Before they can cut you down
It's like a game only it's not a game
It's life or death out here
In this lawless town
I want to see you try to make a run for it
Before they can cut you down
It's like a game only it's not a game
It's life or death out here
In this lawless town
Before they can cut you down
