Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fearless people
Careless needle
Harsh words spoken
And lives are broken
Forceful agin'
Help me, I'm fadin'
Heaven's waitin'
It's time to move on
[Chorus]
Crossin' that bridge
With lessons I've learned
Playin' with fire
And not gettin' burned
I may not know what you're goin' through
But time is the space between me and you
Life carries on
It goes on
[Verse 2]
Just say, "Die," and that would be pessimistic
In your mind, we can walk across water
Please don't cry, it's just a prayer for the dyin'
I just don't know what's got into me
[Chorus]
Been crossin' that bridge
With lessons I've learned
Playin' with fire
And not gettin' burned
I may not know what you're goin' through
But time is the space between me and you
There is a light through that window
Hold on say, "Yes," while people say, "No"
Life carries on
[Bridge]
It goes on, whoa-oh
[Chorus]
I'm crossin' that bridge
With lessons I've learned
I'm playin' with fire
And not gettin' burned
I may not know what you're goin' through
But time is the space between me and you
There is a light through that window
Hold on say, "Yes," while people say, "No"
'Cause life carries on, whoa-oh
[Chorus]
It goes on
It goes on, goes, whoa-oh
Life carries on
[Outro]
When nothin' else matters
When nothin' else matters
I just don't know what's got into me
It's just a prayer for the dyin'
For the dyin'
