Born to Live Songtext
von About a Mile

My heart′s beating inside my chest
My lungs breath in the oxygen
But I need something more than this
To keep me alive

I'm so sick of wasting time
Live a life like I′m half alive
I'm done believing these evil lies
That tell me hopes and dreams have died
I can feel it in the air tonight
Way up above these city lights
There's a higher calling on all over lives
Let′s live to love not just survive

Wake up! What are we waiting for?
We know that we were made for more
We′re not living just 'cause we were born
There′s no doubt about it
We were born to live
Born to live


There it goes like a lightning flash
Seconds pass and don't come back
Make every moment a memory to last
Life′s short it moves to fast
Each breath is a gift from above
New mercies for me to receive I become speechless
See the sun coming up
Fall to my knees
Surrender to love

Wake up! What are we waiting for?
We know that we were made for more
We're not living just ′cause we were born
There's no doubt about it

We were born to live
(Everyday, born to live)
Born to live
(Everyday, born to live)
(Everyday, born to live)
Born to live
(Everyday, born to live)

My heart's beating inside my chest
My lungs breath in the oxygen
But I know I′m more than this
What′s the point if we just survive?
Let's come alive


Wake up! what are we waiting for?
We know that we were made for more
We′re not living just 'cause we were born
There′s no doubt about it
We were born to live

Born to live
(Everyday, born to live)
Born to live
(Born to live)
Born to live
(Born to live)

I'm so sick of wasting time
Live a life like I′m half alive
I'm done believing these evil lies
That tell me hopes and dreams have died
I can feel it in the air tonight
We were born to live
