Life - as thin as a thread
Sometimes you're lucky
Sometimes you're better off dead
Your first breath is taken and into the world you are cast
You long for tomorrow while living each day as your last
Well I know what your heart desires
But you can't take it with you
Into the fire
Now you've done all you can
Your life's at the crossroads
You watch as it slips through your hands
So you stand on the mountain and shout in vain at the sky
But nobody hears you - the words only echo inside
Oh shelter the flame - it may expire
Risin' up from the ashes
Into the fire
Just hold onto your life down to the wire
Oh out from the dragon's jaws
Into the fire
Sometimes you're lucky
Sometimes you're better off dead
Your first breath is taken and into the world you are cast
You long for tomorrow while living each day as your last
Well I know what your heart desires
But you can't take it with you
Into the fire
Now you've done all you can
Your life's at the crossroads
You watch as it slips through your hands
So you stand on the mountain and shout in vain at the sky
But nobody hears you - the words only echo inside
Oh shelter the flame - it may expire
Risin' up from the ashes
Into the fire
Just hold onto your life down to the wire
Oh out from the dragon's jaws
Into the fire
