I'll Die Smiling song lyrics
Out of place
Some street in London's left me out of place
Looked right at you did you see my face?
Seems all of London's going separate ways
I got mine
To New York
No sky above me as I walk its floor
Bright lights attack me but I just ignore
Seems like New York's becoming such a bore
Waste of time
But time is still the question
What are you gonna do?
From infinite directions
You gotta choose a few
So I've searched some sad, sad cities
I've seen some semblance of the truth
I've walked so many journeys
that I've worn these scuffed-up shoes
So I'll die smiling
And I'll die trying
Deep in love
A heart that's beating should be deep in love
She looks right at me as we float above
Seems so sudden we face questions of
These two lives
Like before
A heart that's beating looks for something more
We can't stop walking through that open door
So, yes, you've got me but like I said before
This is mine
So time is still the question
What are you gonna do?
From infinite directions
You gotta choose a few
I've sought some sense of newness
And I've heard never-ending calls of youth
Yeah I've known what it means to do this
because I've shattered each excuse
And I'll die smiling
And I'll die trying
I'll die smiling
I'll die trying
Some street in London's left me out of place
Looked right at you did you see my face?
Seems all of London's going separate ways
I got mine
To New York
No sky above me as I walk its floor
Bright lights attack me but I just ignore
Seems like New York's becoming such a bore
Waste of time
But time is still the question
What are you gonna do?
From infinite directions
You gotta choose a few
So I've searched some sad, sad cities
I've seen some semblance of the truth
I've walked so many journeys
that I've worn these scuffed-up shoes
So I'll die smiling
And I'll die trying
Deep in love
A heart that's beating should be deep in love
She looks right at me as we float above
Seems so sudden we face questions of
These two lives
Like before
A heart that's beating looks for something more
We can't stop walking through that open door
So, yes, you've got me but like I said before
This is mine
So time is still the question
What are you gonna do?
From infinite directions
You gotta choose a few
I've sought some sense of newness
And I've heard never-ending calls of youth
Yeah I've known what it means to do this
because I've shattered each excuse
And I'll die smiling
And I'll die trying
I'll die smiling
I'll die trying
