A question, a photograph
It may be different than yours but, you got the same
It's the playback
What's the point if you don't live it?
So hit the rewind and listen
I heard your heartbeat
If you can hear me
A chance to laugh
And it could fly like a burden, and my name
Beat up, broken, back for more
You'll never understand
The soundtrack to your life
It won't break, while you're bending
A chance to laugh
It's the playback
Cuz my life is sliding
A last crescendo when you die
I tried to ride the wave
A chance to laugh
Cuz if you don't laugh you cry
Left at every corner
The soundtrack to your life
Everything's been planned
It took away the fear
Cuz if you don't laugh you cry
And know that I'm right here
A last crescendo when you die
So hit the rewind and listen
Your life is a flashback
I hold on, but let go
The soundtrack to your life
Starting at the ending
It's the playback
Cuz if you don't laugh you cry
A last crescendo when you die
Been there, and back again
A statement, a story, a struggle
A question, a photograph
And when the music ends
A statement, a story, a struggle
It came down crashing
It took away the fear
There's questions, and answers
I've thrown myself right in and
Your life is a flashback
I give you room to breathe
It's time to start again
First step, your last breath
I heard your heartbeat
So hit the rewind and listen
A statement, a story, a struggle
I'll be dragging my own ass off the floor
A question, a photograph
Been there and back again
Remember, the best things
Backwards to go forward
And when the music ends
Were never mine to keep
Your life is a flashback
