Life is the reason

I′m still holding ground

Life is imperfect bodiesAnd perfect sounds

Death is in season

And it's pushing me ′round

And 'round and 'round

A bottle cap, a rusted crown

When one pushes up

The other pulls me down

And I don′t know

If I′ll get up, if I'll get out

One pushes up

The other pulls me down

And I don′t know

If I'll get up, if I′ll get out

This one makes you big

In a cruel world

This one makes you small

In a lonely world

This one takes it all away

All the pain

But I'm not giving up

Not today, not today

There′s life in this tunnel

We're just hanging around

Please if you see my hand

Just pull me out

There's death in this tunnel

Still hanging on me

Still begging of me

′Cause when one pushes up

The other pulls me down

And I don′t know

If I'll get up, if I′ll be found

This one makes you big

What a cruel world

This one makes you small

Feel that lonely world

This one takes it all away

But I'll stay

′Cause I won't give you up

Not today

I won′t

I won't give you up
