as if your life depended on it
Say hello As if your life depended on it Crack a joke, light his smoke As if your life depended on it  You can't handle his beautiful eyes And all they symbolize No flowers in your bottles No view of the moon from you room No baby in your belly too  Behind your sleepy eyes You're hyper-aware of time Ticking away towards your bed ( Towards your bed ) No one to go home to Your life is boring you So you're living for the guy that you just met  ( That just met ) There's no such thing as pleasant conversation It's all just drowning victims gasping for air You need somebody to save you now 'Cause you are surrounded and they're closing in  He gives me a beer I take a sip As if my life depended on it 'Cause everything matters And if he doesn't take me up inside I know I'm gonna die  Behind your sleepy eyes You're hyper-aware of time Ticking away towards the end ( Towards the end ) No one to go home to Your life is boring you So you're living for the guy that you just met  ( That you just met ) No one to go home to My life is boring too So you put it all on the guy that you just met
