[Verse 1]
The taste of life, I can't describe
It's choking up my mind
I'm reaching out, I can't believe
The faith, it can't decide

[Pre-Chorus]
On and on, I carry on
But underneath my mind
And on and on, I tell myself
It's this I can't disguise

[Chorus]
Oh, can't you see?
Holding on to my heart, I plead
The taste of life

[Verse 2]
The pace of the time, I can't survive
It's grinding down the view
I'm breaking out, which way to choose?
A choice I can't renew

[Pre-Chorus]
On and on, I carry on
But underneath my mind
And on and on, I tell myself
It's this I can't disguise
[Chorus]
Oh, can't you see?
Holding on to my heart, I plead
No place is safe, can't you see?
The taste of life
