Dying For

(album: Rain City Drive - 2022)

Was your life worth dying for?
Did you stare down a wolf at the door
Like you carried the keys of the cross
And covered the cost
With only your innocence lost?

It won't happen again
And nothing ever makes it out alive
We were chasing the wind
Baby, we were running out of time

Our sins would be heaven sent
Under the sediment
Already skeletons
Somewhere irrelevant
Where every pontiff and prophet and poet
All wind up the same way
Weighing the end reward

Was your life worth dying for?
Did you stare down a wolf at the door
Like you carried the keys of the cross
And covered the cost
With only your innocence

Tell me young man would you say
When the end was a moment away
You swallowed the pain without any regret
And settled your debt
If nothing is permanent
Was your life worth dying for?

Was your life worth dying for?

I'd face the music
Be killed or kill my excuses
But wasted the days in ways I didn't know
Like Joni said it
You're never gonna get it
Until it's gone

Our sins would be heaven sent
Under the sediment
Already skeletons
Somewhere irrelevant
I hope you captured
The dream you were after
If this ain't the rapture
I'm asking you

Was your life worth dying for?
Did you stare down a wolf at the door
Like you carried the keys of the cross
And covered the cost
With only your innocence

Tell me young man would you say
When the end was a moment away
You swallowed the pain without any regret
And settled your debt
If nothing is permanent
Was your life worth dying for?

Was your life worth dying for?
Was your life worth dying for?
