A chandelier on a thin string Hangin' on to reality I'm losin' faith while the time bleeds At least I still got some air to breathe Grain of sand in the hourglass Havin' fun while I still can I wanna know what the end say But I can't rush the story I'm a winner and a loser in the same mind And I love it and I hate it at the same time Go to heaven, go to hell, you're in the same line Tryna jump ahead, you only rewind Past life Sometimes it feels like life's a distant memory Of that night Sometimes it feels like you're already next to me And that's why Sometimes we fight, it's never wrong, it's never right And I, I try, I try, I try my best to taste the highs Past life You know, man, it is a tough crowd Sit you down when you stand out Fit you into a checkbox It never ends, even on top A piece of gum or a Louboutin Just a penny to a million Paid in dust and we carry on Fake a smile and we play along, yeah I'm a winner and a loser in the same mind And I love it and I hate it at the same time Go to heaven, go to hell, you're in the same line Tryna jump ahead, you only rewind Past life Sometimes it feels like life's a distant memory Of that night Sometimes it feels like you're already next to me And that's why Sometimes we fight, it's never wrong, it's never right And I, I try, I try, I try my best to taste the highs Past life I try, I try, I try my best to taste the highs Past life I try, I try, I try my best to taste the highs Past life
