Ooooooooooh
(Mmmmmmmm)
(Ooh ooh ooh...)

Nobody gets out alive
I'm just trying to stay afloat
The tide is high, my hands are tired
Someone throw me a life preserver
(Ooh...)
I’ve seen the sun rise over deserts
Felt the cold in lovers lies
But I never learned how to say
A final goodbyyyyyye

(Mmmmmmm)
There’s one too many things left to do
(Ooh)
Words unsaid, still burning through
Peaks I swore I’d one day climb
But time she don’t wait in line
(No, no, no)
I was once unbreakable
Thought my youth would never bend
Now every breath reminds me
Even stars have ends

(Ooooooh)
I let her go, she had the ring
(She had the ring)
She would've stayed through everything
(everything)
But I was young, I played the fool
chasing something fake, I dropped the jewel
(ooh...)

But nobody gets out alive
(nobody, nobody)
We’re all racing borrowed time
(borrowed time)
With every scar, every sleepless night
Taught me how to fight the dying light
(Ooh)
I’ve come far, though I paid the price
I’m not ready... but I don't get to decide
Cause nobody...nobody gets out alive
(Nobody gets out alive)

I hear the whisper in my bones
(ooh)
A quiet ticking I can't postpone
(mmm)
The mirror shows a softer man
Than the boy who ran when love began
(When love began...)

But maybe there’s some grace in knowing
(Ooh, there's grace)
Mistakes are a part of where we're going
(We're going...)
That regret’s just love that never bloomed
And lessons are etched in every wound

(Ooooooh...)
I said I wasn’t ready to go
But I’ve made peace with what I know
I’ve held beauty in my hands
Even if it slipped like sand
(slipped like sand...)

Nobody gets out alive
(nobody, nobody)
But we can still live before we die
(live before we die)
And though I leave some things behind
I made my mark, I lived my lines
(Ooh, I lived my lines)
So let the darkness take its time
I’ll walk toward it with my eyes open wide
(Ooh, walk on...)
Cause nobody...no...nobody gets out alive

Mmm…
Nobody…
(Nobody...)
Gets out…
(gets out...)
alive…
