lyrics

Don't say you'll throw away
Your soul, don't show your soul away
Don't play, don't play that game again
I don't want to play pretend
Because I don't know how to play
And I do not want to play

You've got to live before die
Before you live, before you die..

If I die before I wake, prey the lord
Prey the lord my soul won't break
And if I wake before I die, prey the lord
Prey the lord my soul to fly
Prey the lord my soul to fly

You've got to live before die
Before you live, before you die..

Don't say you'll throw away my heart
Before we even start
Don't play, don't play that game again
I don't want to play pretend
Because I don't know how to play
And I do not want to play
