[Intro]
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 1]
I’ve had enough, it feels like I’m drowning
It’s like an anchor, that’s pulling me down
I must escape from this prison around me
It’s time to turn my life around
The clock is ticking and there’s not long left (not long left)
Every second counts when you’re holding your breath
I need something, a new direction
I’ve gotta turn my life around

[Pre-Chorus]
There’s still hope, if I take control

[Chorus]
I don’t wanna live forever, but I don’t wanna die (don't wanna die)
I need something to believe in, I wanna live my life
Sing it, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
All I need is the strength to carry on
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
All I need is the strength to live my life

[Verse 2]
I’m rising up and there’s nothing gonna stop me
The weight of the world couldn’t bring me back down
You never thought that I’d ever have it in me
Then I silenced any doubt
I couldn’t tell by the way that you mocked me
That you were with me every step of the way
And now you’re just another lamb to the slaughter
And I will live another day

[Pre-Chorus]
There’s still hope, if I take control

[Chorus]
I don’t wanna live forever, but I don’t wanna die (don't wanna die)
I need something to believe in, I wanna live my life
Sing it, woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
All I need is the strength to carry on
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
All I need is the strength to live my life

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
I don’t wanna live forever, but I don’t wanna die (don't wanna die)
I need something to believe in, I wanna live my life

[Chorus]
I don’t wanna live forever, but I don’t wanna die (don't wanna die)
I need something to believe in, I wanna live my life
Sing it, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
All I need is the strength to carry on
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
All I need is the strength to live my life

[Outro]
Don't wanna live forever, just wanna live my life
Don't wanna live forever, just wanna live my life
