Day 544

Sometimes we fall down and can’t get back up
we’re hiding behind skin that’s too tough
how come we don’t say I love you enough
till it’s too late, it’s not too late

Our hearts are hungry for a food that won’t come
we could make a feast from these crumbs
and we’re all staring down the barrel of a gun
so if your life flashed before you
what would you wish you would’ve done

Yeah… gotta start
lookin’ at the hand of the time we’ve been given here
this is all we got and we gotta start thinkin’ if
every second counts on a clock that’s tickin’
gotta live like we’re dying

Yeah we got
86 400 seconds in a day to
turn it all around or throw it all away
we gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em
while we got the chance to say
gotta live like we’re dying

And if your plane fell out of the skies
who would you call with your last goodbyes
should be so careful who we let fall out of our lives
so when we long for absolution
there’ll be no one on the line

Yeah… gotta start
lookin’ at the hand of the time we’ve been given here
this is all we got and we gotta start thinkin’ if
every second counts on a clock that’s tickin’
gotta live like we’re dying

We only got
86 400 seconds in a day to
turn it all around or throw it all away
we gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em
while we got the chance to say
gotta live like we’re dying

Like we’re dying oh– like we’re dying x2

We only got
86 400 seconds in a day to
turn it all around or throw it all away
we gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em
while we got the chance to say
gotta live — like we’re dying

You never know a good thing till it’s gone
you never see a crash until it’s head on
all these people right when we’re dead wrong
you never know a good thing till it’s gone

Yeah… gotta start
lookin’ at the hand of the time we’ve been given here
this is all we got and we gotta start thinkin’ if
every second counts on a clock that’s tickin’
gotta live like we’re dying

We only got
86 400 seconds in a day to
turn it all around or throw it all away
we gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em
while we got the chance to say
gotta live like we’re dying

Like we’re dying oh — like we’re dying x2

We only got
86 400 seconds in a day to
turn it all around or throw it all away
we gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em
while we got the chance to say
gotta live like we’re dying
live like we’re dying
Fade out

- Live Like We’re Dying by The Script

It’s 6: 25 PM on day 544 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to tweet about my 21 For 21 Campaign - @gloxpolguard (Steve) made a donation  yesterday (thanks Steve I really appreciate you help me give food to those who don’t have it freely available to them) – exercise,  brush my teeth, tweet some more about my campaign, feed myself avocado for breakfast, prepare and  publish my Disability of the Day feature,  continue tweeting about my campaign, read  Double Double written by Cameron Herold, feed myself Chapati and vegetable curry for lunch, continue reading ‘Double Double’ and listen to music – now playing Haunted by Taylor Swift (I LOVE Taylor Swift’s music the things she sings about are the same stuff I go through probably because we’re almost the same age).

This morning laying in bed I wondered if people wondered why I was so obsessed with giving I know I know people have better things to do than wonder why I’m obsessed with giving but in case you do wonder I make a conscious effort to make a difference because I know that we only get one shot at this life I want history to say about me that I tried every day to make a difference. Are you living like you’re dying?
