I'm learning heartbreak is the price of admission
Don't resist it if you wanna keep livin', oh
Every breath and every moment here is sacred
Sometimes karma, yeah, it's not your own
You're dealt the cards of a familial ghost
You gotta find a way to break the cycle

If you're not dead, don't play dead
Life is meant to be lived
The darker the night, the brighter the stars
The deeper the grief, the sweeter the heart

It may be easier to just check out
Most people live with their eyes turned down
It's hard to see the beauty in the struggle
Make peace with what you cannot change
Choose to see divine in commonplace
It don't make you weak, empathy is vital

If you're not dead, don't play dead
Life is meant to be lived
The darker the night, the brighter the stars
The deeper the grief, the sweeter the heart
The sweeter the heart
