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