Life On A String Lyrics

Intro:
If all this is easy and all that we need
we've fallen behind, we've fallen behind
you can dig all you like and make a big pile
and sing all the while, and sing all the while
But you're just a boy who strummed the right chord
and I'm just a boy who gave an ear
write, it's alright, I'm shedding my skin instead of these tears
Swimming alone and torn in between
life in a dream or life on a string
living atop our own little hills
perched for the kill, we're perched for the kill
and you're just a boy who strummed the right chord
and I'm just a boy who gave an ear
write, it's alright, I'm shedding my skin instead of these tears
Instrumental:
If love was the light first seen at our birth
and then all the earth, and then all the earth
how can it fall so far behind
try to remind me, and I'll try to remind
But you're just a boy who strummed the right chord
and I'm just a boy who gave an ear
write, it's alright, write, it's alright, write
