Lyrics:
YUSUF ISLAM Dying To Live
You know Ive heard it said theres beauty in distortion By some people whove withdrawn to find their heads Now they say that there is humor in misfortune You know I wonder if theyll laugh when I am dead
Why am I fighting to live if Im just living to fight? Why am I trying to see when there aint nothing in sight? Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try? Why am I dying to live if Im just living to die?
You know some people say that values are subjective But theyre just speaking words that someone else has said And so they live and fight and kill with no objective Sometimes its hard to tell the living from the dead
Why am I fighting to live if Im just living to fight? Why am I trying to see when there aint nothing in sight? Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try? Why am I dying to live if Im just living to die?
You know I used to weave my words into confusion And so I hope youll understand me when Im through You know I used to live my life as an illusion But reality will make my dream come true
So Ill keep fighting to live till theres no reason to fight And Ill keep trying to see until the end is in sight You know Im trying to give so cmon give me a try You know Im dying to live until Im ready to die
