Music Life

If you give your life to music
It opens up the path
Maybe you didn’t even choose it
You made the most with what you had

If you give your life to music
And commune with the unseen
Your brain is like a fuse
It melts the distances between

Chances are you’ve got a few friends
Always swimming on the deep end
Chasing dragons and sunsets
Shooting whiskey and hallucinogens

If you give your life to music
It might not go quite like you thought
You find religion in your instrument
And inspiration is your god

If you give your life to music
There’s a certain sacrifice
Thе ups and downs, well, you get used to it
But on your psychе, there’s a price

Chances are you’ve got a few friends
Spread out all over the continent
You think of them, but don’t hear from them
Till they’re just voices inside your head

And chances are you’ve had a night or three
Of which you have no memory
You’ve looked all over for someone to care
But then you see they’re always standing there
You need more room in your head to think
So you reach for another drink
Years of travel and loneliness
Make you susceptible to some excess
And though you didn’t think much of it
Maybe you went past your own limit

If you give your life to music
If you give your life to music

Chances are you’ve got a few friends
Who burned the candle at both ends
And every day was a weekend
Until the dark night came for them
In a hotel or hospital room
And now you’ll be seeing them soon
In dreams and memories bittersweet
And in songs sung so beautifully
Songs sung so beautifully
Life lived so fully

If you give your life to music
If you give your life to music
If you give your life to music
If you give your life to music

No regret, don’t forget I loved you, I loved you
No regret, don’t forget I love you, I loved you
