I know that I was born to die
Since the day, they first saw the twinkle in my eye
I know that I was born to sigh,
From the strain of the everyday life
I was born, just born to die
Since the day, I first started my life, oh, oh, oh
I try to stay awake
Drifting in and out, in and out of space
I try to stay awake
Open my eyes, to the waking day
I know that I, I could of died that day
When I fell to the ground in a crucial way
I know that I, I can’t confide
In the fear of death anyway, no way
I try to stay awake
Drifting in and out, in and out of space
I try to stay awake
Open my eyes, to the waking day
