I wake up, put my poker face on
It´s roughly the same hand
I was dealt yesterday
I stand up and stare out at the skyline
It´s roughly the same town
That I saw yesterday

Living doesn´t come first try
It takes a lifetime getting it right
It takes a lifetime to learn how to sing
To find my place in the worlds symphony
To become the man today
The man I thought I could be

It takes a lifetime
It takes a lifetime

I wake up and bandage these scars
The scars of my heart
That prove that I´m still alive
That I´m still alive
Living doesn´t come first try
It takes a lifetime getting it right

Living doesn´t come first try
It takes a lifetime getting it right
It takes a lifetime to learn how to sing
To find my place in the worlds symphony
To become the man today
The man I thought I could be
The man I thought I could be

It takes a lifetime
It takes a lifetime
