When You Live Lyrics

All the lost kisses and runaway tears
Can't fix what your good mom and dad
Have been saving in pictures for all of these years and it's sad
Everything fades to black, yeahAll your cellophane friends play their monologue games
And mock everything that I am
But I don't let it phase me 'cause they're all the same
Don't be one of them'Cause the lights will go down on your show
And as the scenes roll by
There's something I wanted to say to youWhen you live, live with your soul
Not with your time
When you love, love with your heart
Not with your mind
When you wanna be something the world can't define
Open up your eyesAccidents happen then confidence fails
But that's not what I'm trying to say
There's this look in your eyes
That's been killing me here for daysSo as the night drags on
There's this I've been meaning to say to youWhen you live, live with your soul

Not with your time
When you love, love with your heart
Not with your mind
When you wanna be something the world can't define
Open up your eyesYou can't fake it here, you can't fake it here
You can try all you want but you're breaking here
You can laugh it off, tell your friends I'm soft
You can cry, you can scream but I'll brush it off
You're not listening, you're not listening
To anything I'm trying to sayWhen you live, live with your soul
Not with your time
When you love, love with your heart
Not with your mind
When you wanna be something the world can't define
Open upWhen you live, live with your soul
Not with your time
When you love, love with your heart
Not with your mind
When you wanna be something the world can't defineYou can't fake it here
Your eyes
Open up your eyes
