Couple corrections here. It should be "and I refuse not to believe," and for whatever reasons the entire fourth stanza ("When I was young") has been excluded. These are the correct lyrics, to my knowledge.

You and me we had it all wrong There was ice beneath our feet But I refuse to understand it And I refuse not to believe

I know that I will be alone tonight Even though you are by my side You said this life is not what you planned it But if this is a life at all It is a life of crime

Now it's true I hardly know you And you will always look for me But there is nothing here to hold onto Except the possibilities

When I was young I had a vision I saw the waves crash into the sky You said this life was made for the living But if this is a life at all It is a life of

How can I believe You don't know The words I hear you speak You can't be sure You say a soul is in me Well if it's a soul you want Then you can take the one I've got Cause it's a life of crime

This life was made for something But it wasn't you and I We all were born from nothing And we will never die
