Soundtrack to Your Life

If you can hear me And know that I'm right here I heard your heartbeat It took away the fear Cuz my life is sliding I tried to ride the wave It came down crashing It's time to start again Backwards to go forward Left at every corner Been there and back again And when the music ends Your life is a flashback A question, a photograph A statement, a story, a struggle A chance to laugh Cuz if you don't laugh you cry A last crescendo when you die So hit the rewind and listen It's the playback The soundtrack to your life First step, your last breath Everything's been planned There's questions, and answers You'll never understand I hold on, but let go I give you room to breathe Remember, the best things Were never mine to keep Starting at the ending It won't break, while you're bending Been there, and back again And when the music ends Your life is a flashback A question, a photograph A statement, a story, a struggle A chance to laugh Cuz if you don't laugh you cry A last crescendo when you die So hit the rewind and listen It's the playback The soundtrack to your life The soundtrack to your life And it could fly like a burden, and my name It may be different than yours but, you got the same Beat up, broken, back for more I'll be dragging my own a*s off the floor I've thrown myself right in and What's the point if you don't live it? If you can hear me And know that I'm right here I heard your heartbeat It took away the fear Your life is a flashback A question, a photograph A statement, a story, a struggle A chance to laugh Cuz if you don't laugh you cry A last crescendo when you die So hit the rewind and listen It's the playback The soundtrack to your life
