about

We Live. We Love. We Die. was inspired by how I choose to live my life; I live the best I can and I love the best I can, because when I die, I know that is all that will really have mattered.

lyrics

Fiona was a flower
She made 8.50 an hour
At a dead end diner
Working 12hrs a day
She laid her dreams aside
Now she's scraping grease, swallowing her pride
A little girl at home, all that's on her mind
She promised her a better life

Oh we live and we love
Oh we live and we die
Oh we live and we love
Oh we live and we die
We live. We love. We die.

Mona and Eddie
They were 45 years married
Their love was steady
As if they were still 21
Everywhere they went they were side by side
Until cancer struck and Mona died
Eddie said he'd move on; he lied
His true love was gone

Oh we live and we love
Yeah we live and we die
We live and we love
Oh we live and we die
We live. We love. We die.

Mary and her grandparents were always close
Of her heart they had the most
They taught her everything she knows
A debt she can never repay
But time eventually had its way
And Mary was there as they faded away
She thinks about them every day
Cause true love never dies

Yeah we live and we love
Yeah we live and we die
Oh we live and we love
We live and we die
Oh we live and we love
Oh we live and we die
We live and we love
Yeah we live and we die.

We live. We love. We die.
