Will to Life Songtext
von Tall Ships

We′re all dying together
That nearing forever
It consumes me
There's no denying
That I′d be lying
If I said I was coping alright with it
But I gotta chest that burns a fearless red
Everytime that you are near
You illuminate the darkness
That I find myself living within
Cos I was wandering lost
Just trying to join the dots
Paint a picture of a life
That wouldn't fade nor rot
But there's no denying (I was hol-)
You poured the light in (-Low before you)
Brought purpose to my LI-IIFE (Came along and lit me up so)
Cos I gotta chest that burns a fearless red
Everytime that you are near
You illuminate the darkness


That I find myself living within
Cost it hurts a whole lot
To be on your own in this world that is not (On your own in this world that is not)
Built for being alone (Built for being alone)
And when I′m sunk again (And when I′m sunk again)
Desperate for some meaning
And I can't dispell (And I can′t dispell)
The cavernous empty feeling inside
Make everything alright
Ignite my will to life
So lay me down
On my bed
Make an incision across my chest
Expose my inside
Pull out the wet
Wood of previous failed attempts
Fill me up
With moments blessed
Douse me down with incendiary words that you've said
Fuel to last me until I′m dead
Strike a match
And watch the fire spread now
I gotta chest that burns a fearless red
Everytime that you are near
You illuminate the darkness
That I find myself living within
Now I gotta chest that burns a fearless red
Everytime that you are near
You illuminate the darkness
That I find myself living within
I was hollow (I was hol-)
Full of dark (-Low dark)
Before now I'm spilling light (Before you came along)
From my incandescent core (And lit me up so)
Burning brightly with (Burning brightly)
A purpose and truth (Purpose and truth)
Oh bringer of light (Oh bringer of light)
I owe it all to you
My will to life
