You can't lose if you don't play
Says the man who's scared to look around
But not everyone sees it that way

It's the ignorance that puts us back

No one ever writes letters anymore

But there's still a world outside your door

Life is what happens while you're waiting for moments that never come

Life is what happens while you're holding onto things you're running from

Are you anxious about how things will turn out

Or do you sleep well at night
The common dream is to walk away
From every choice you'll have to make


Every patch of ice you touch goes crystal
And even if your feet are going numb

You're feeling alive and that is the one thing
That helps remembering where you're from


But the bigger the lie, the more they believe
Crawl, walk, run


Life is what happens while you're waiting for moments that never come
Life is what happens while you're holding onto things you're running from
Give it all you've got and don't forget

That the time you spend wondering what lies ahead
Takes away everything you've built up for yourself


Life is what happens while you're waiting for moments that never come
And it has only begun
Give it all you've got and don't forget

That the time you spend wondering what lies ahead
Takes away everything you've built up for yourself
Life is what happens
