Hey taxi, send me straight to the heart of it
The nucleus of politics was somebody
Somebody started it
Cause they taxed me with a scapel piece by piece
they cut me deep and bled me dry until there was nothing left to bleed
[Chorus:]
And this is how I choose to live
As if I'm jumping off a cliff
knowing that you'll save me
knowing that you'll save me
and after all the stupid things I did
there's nothing left that you'd forgive
because you already forgave me
yeah you already forgave me
(and just) Keep driving
leave this deceit miles behind me
so far back I'd have to wrap my mind in
just remind me
I can't try this to pick myself up
and then move on
think about the life I'll have
when this fragile one is gone.
[Chorus]
Never forget
there's life after death and taxes
(and) Forgiveness come
and all of the rest
is what passes away
Death and decay can't touch us now
Every breath that I inhale
is followed by exhaling
traps the one who never failed
I know You'll never failed me
[2x]
(just) Never forget
there's life after death and taxes
(and) Forgiveness come (forgiveness come)
and all of the rest
Still just passes away
[Chorus mixes with previous stanza]
Death and decay can't touch us now
The nucleus of politics was somebody
Somebody started it
Cause they taxed me with a scapel piece by piece
they cut me deep and bled me dry until there was nothing left to bleed
[Chorus:]
And this is how I choose to live
As if I'm jumping off a cliff
knowing that you'll save me
knowing that you'll save me
and after all the stupid things I did
there's nothing left that you'd forgive
because you already forgave me
yeah you already forgave me
(and just) Keep driving
leave this deceit miles behind me
so far back I'd have to wrap my mind in
just remind me
I can't try this to pick myself up
and then move on
think about the life I'll have
when this fragile one is gone.
[Chorus]
Never forget
there's life after death and taxes
(and) Forgiveness come
and all of the rest
is what passes away
Death and decay can't touch us now
Every breath that I inhale
is followed by exhaling
traps the one who never failed
I know You'll never failed me
[2x]
(just) Never forget
there's life after death and taxes
(and) Forgiveness come (forgiveness come)
and all of the rest
Still just passes away
[Chorus mixes with previous stanza]
Death and decay can't touch us now
