We have to take this to be aliveThere's one life to give and so we striveTo build upon this, this way of rhymeThis book of lives, this costume of doubts[We all readjust from your tastesSleep forward so we feel gracedThis passage that I've misplacedMerely existing to stay the same] x2[Just take this to the extent in which you areLiving the morally predictable wayHoping, reaching for blank salvationEvery second of every hour of every single day] x2Wait!There's only one!One life!And then it's doneJust wait,there's only one!One life!And then it's none[I see gallows built in your nameStrangling you while you breathe to pray] x2You'd rather live and serve and die and be savedAnd there's so much you deserve[To be buried deep, to forever sleep] x4Just wait!There's only one!One life!And then it's doneJust wait,there's only one!One life!And then it's noneI'd rather serve in hell than reign in heaven
