Cheating Death - Tom Chaplin

Quick to burn but slow to learn

With every breath

Cheating death

Life’s a storm

You’ve got to keep warm

Cause with every breath you’re cheating death

Breathe in

Breathe out

Never look down at that empty lake

That pit of snakes

That dream from which no one awakes

Times are tough

The water’s rough

At best you’ll be cast out to sea

Wind don’t fail

Let it bend your sail

Let the natural force blow you to safer shores

And never think how

We blink in, blink out of this universe

The stars will burst

There’s no reverse

This life’s a curse

Just keep believing till your dying day

Don’t let the night in, keep lighting your way

You’ve got the strength to go on

Search in yourself and be strong

Just keep believing till your dying day

Don’t let the night in, keep lighting your way

You’ve got the strength to go on

Search in yourself and be strong

Keep on searching on

Keep on searching on

Search in yourself and be strong
