Faster Than Life Lyrics
Hear the sounding, feel the pounding
Pain is coming, you don't know where
Blood is thick, you're feeling sick
Live with the choices you have made
Hard as stone it must be so
In a systematic life of lies
Flight or fight, run or die
You can't stand to even try
Rip it open, no more hoping
Time for you to rise and shine
I control the names I hold
But I can't fit into your mold
I know that I'm stronger than you are
In a world where nothing is faster than life
Search for answers, even after
Truth is whats upon your mind
On your face, its left no trace
Can't you read between the lines
Brand new day to do your crime
Pay your debt without a dime
Left unspoken, tales are broken
Carve a smile upon your face
Hear the phone, it's just a drone
No one hears your lonely moan
I can't change the world I see
But i can change the world in me
Now you know that the dying is easy
But its harder just staying alive
There are parts of the heart that are harder
Than the race that we run
Is faster than life
Pain is coming, you don't know where
Blood is thick, you're feeling sick
Live with the choices you have made
In a systematic life of lies
You can't stand to even try
Rip it open, no more hoping
Time for you to rise and shine
But I can't fit into your mold
In a world where nothing is faster than life
Truth is whats upon your mind
On your face, its left no trace
Can't you read between the lines
Pay your debt without a dime
Carve a smile upon your face
Hear the phone, it's just a drone
No one hears your lonely moan
But i can change the world in me
But its harder just staying alive
There are parts of the heart that are harder
Is faster than life
