The Way You Know

I met a young man by the sea
He looked alive not only dreaming
He turned around and smiled at me
Said 'you're just caught up finding meaning

But you can't even begin to start
When you're stuck in the ways of all the things that break your heart

So live life, life, the way you know
And take time, time to fill your soul
Cause there's nothing you'll take, there's only what you leave behind
So live life, life, the way you know'

I met an old man by the sea
He looked so sick of only dreaming
He dried his eyes and looked at me
Said 'am I alone in how I'm feeling?
They don't know, don't get my head
I got lost between anxiety and dread
When they said

Live life, life, the way you know
And take time, time to fill your soul
Cause there's nothing you'll take, there's only what you leave behind
So live life, life, the way you know'

I'll try to live life, life, with what I know
To take time, time to fill my soul
Cause there's nothing I'll take, there's only what I leave behind
I'll try to live life, oh life, with what I know

I saw both men by the sea
They both had things to say, I listened
Enjoy the highs, keep the lows foreseen
Well that's my aim, my only mission
