Prompt / Lyrics
I Can’t Die Today I gave up knotting ties underneath my collar And said farewell to the six figure dollar I gave title and fortune all that power To face my own sadness with my morning shower Too embarrassed to be happy or too dumb to see The real measure of success: the girl riding with me They said, don’t do it boy, don’t walk away Life ain’t a game and you can’t just play I’m walking out, yeah, I’m leaving this way All I want’s tomorrow, so I can’t die today Never hit my stride in those shiny black shoes Always teaching others, never finding a clue Green with envy; my color of choice Focused on the history instead of finding a voice Numb from all the anger and unable to feel A love growing inside that was finally real They said, don’t do it boy, don’t walk away Life ain’t a game and you can’t just play I’m walking out, yeah, I’m leaving this way All I want’s tomorrow, so I can’t die today A part of me was dying The part you might say is my soul Dreams of rebuilding me bit by bit With passion taking control The house we bought is bigger than the one in our dreams We have all that we need with only half of the means Gone is the desire to always compare Time’s the only currency and I have plenty to share The love that we grew was nurtured inside Two became four and it’s a hell of a ride But they said… don’t do it boy, don’t walk away Life ain’t a game and you can’t just play I’m walking out, yeah, I’m leaving this way All I want’s tomorrow, so I can’t die today They said, don’t do it boy, don’t walk away Life ain’t a game and you can’t just play I’m walking out, yeah, I’m leaving this way All I want’s tomorrow, so I can’t die today All I want’s tomorrow, so I can’t die today All I want’s tomorrow, so I can’t die today All I want’s tomorrow, nothing’s left in the way
