Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yesterday is a wrinkle on your forehead
Yesterday is a promise that you've broken
[Verse 2]
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
This is your life
And today is all you've got now
Yeah
And today is all you'll ever have
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
[Chorus]
This is your life
Are you who you want to be?
This is your life
Are you who you want to be?
This is your life
Is it everything you dreamed that it would be
When the world was younger
And you had everything to lose?
[Verse 3]
Yesterday is a kid in the corner
Yesterday is dead and over
[Chorus]
And this is your life
Are you who you want to be?
This is your life
Are you who you want to be?
This is your life
Is it everything you dreamed that it would be
When the world was younger
And you had everything to lose?
[Verse 4]
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes (Don't close your eyes)
Don't close your eyes
[Chorus]
This is your life
Are you who you want to be?
This is your life
Are you who you want to be? Yeah
This is your life
Are you who you want to be? (Who you want to be? Yeah)
This is your life
Are you who you want to be? (Who you want to be? Come on, come on)
This is your life
Is it everything you dreamed that it would be
When the world was younger
And you had everything to lose?
And you had everything to lose?
