Something To Live For
You live the way you have
The slopes are getting steeper
Pull apart, every vision
To all of those still alive
this is your point of entry
join us for the ascent
The roads we have travelled
Lead us to our demise
Can we take control
The waters getting deeper
We're drowning in the sense
Fyurther, down we go
It's not by chance
We made it out on our own
I'm finally falling in love
With the people we've become
And that's something to live for
