Not Every Man Lives

Have you ever skipped a stone across the water?
Have you ever hitched a free ride on a train?
Have you ever climbed up on a water tower,
To write a name?
The truth is
Every man dies
Not every man lives
Have you ever loved someone that you would die for?
Have you ever walked too far out on a limb?
Have you ever chased a dream too high to reach for,
And pulled it in?
The truth is
Every man dies
And not every man lives
I wanna paint outside the lines
Run the red lights in my mind
Take everything one lifetime has to give
I wanna stand inside a fire
Walk blindfolded on a wire
Every man dies
But not every man lives
Have you ever thought about how fast time passes?
Ever thought about what you would leave behind?
Ever stood up for somethin' you believed in,
And drawn a line?
The truth is
Every man dies
And not every man lives
I wanna paint outside the lines
Run the red lights in my mind
Take everything one lifetime has to give
I wanna stand inside a fire
Walk blindfolded on a wire
Every man dies
But not every man lives
I wanna stand inside a fire
Walk blindfolded on a wire
Every man dies
But not every man lives
Have you ever skipped a stone across the water?
Have you ever hitched a free ride on a train?
