Edgar Winter - Dying to Live lyrics
[Edgar Winter - Dying to Live lyrics]
There's beauty in distortion
By some people who've withdrawn
To find their heads now they say that there
Is humor in misfortune
You know I wonder if they'll
Laugh when I am dead
Why am I fighting to live if
I'm just living to fight?
Why am I trying to see when
There ain't nothing in sight?
Why am I trying to give when
No one gives me a try?
Why am I dying to live if
I'm just living to die?
Hey, you know some people say
That values are subjective
But they're just speaking words that
Someone else has said
And so they live and fight
And kill with no objective
Sometimes it's hard to tell the
Living from the dead
Why am I fighting to live if
I'm just living to fight?
Why am I trying to see when
There ain't nothing in sight?
Why am I trying to give when
No one gives me a try?
Why am I dying to live if
I'm just living to die?
You know I used to weave
My words into confusion
And so I hope you'll understand
Me when I'm through you know I used to live
My life as an illusion
But reality will make my dream come true
So I'll keep fighting to live till
There's no reason to fight
And I'll keep trying to see until
The end is in sight
You know I'm trying to give so
C'mon give me a try
You know I'm dying to live
Until I'm ready to die
