Why am I dying to live, when I'm just living to die?

Edgar Winter- Dying To Live

Mmm...
You know I've heard it said there's beauty in distortion
By some people who withdraw to find their head
Now they say that there is humor in misfortune
Sometimes I wonder if they'll laugh...when I am dead...

Chorus-
Why am I fighting to live
If I'm just living to fight?
Why am I trying to see...
When there ain't nothing in sight?
Why am I trying to give
When no one gives me a try?
Why am I dying to live
If I'm just living to die...

Yeah...
You know some people say that values are subjective
But they're just speaking words...that someone else has said...
And so they live and fight and kill with no objective
Sometimes it's hard to tell the living from the dead

Chorus

Hey, hey, hey, hey...
Now I used to weave my words...in deep confusion
So I hope you'll understand me...when I'm blue...
Now I used to live my life as an illusion
But reality will make my dream come true

So I'll keep fighting to live
If there's no reason to fight
And I'll keep trying to see...
Until the end is in sight
You know I'm trying to give
So come on...give me a try
You know I'm dying to live
Until I'm ready...
Until I'm ready...
Until I'm ready...
Til I'm ready to die...
