Verse
A heist has taken place and all but one has escaped
They remove the mask and show the world his name
The look in his eyes is a look I recognize
He knows his life will never be the same
His face is familiar, I’ve seen it before
We both pick up our sons from school
He spends most of his nights out at a bar in town
Where he and his friends shoot pool
Pre-Chorus
I’ll pay them a visit, I’ll pay for their drinks
I’ll get them so wasted they can’t even think
I’ll stroke on their ego, I’ll feed on their pride
I’ll make them admit they committed the f#cking crime
Chorus
We only have one life (Don’t throw it away)
We can’t get back the time (For our mistakes)
The world won’t slow down, it keeps spinning around
Verse
I walk in the bar and pull up a chair
As they play with their toys I just sit and stare
I ask them how they could afford such fancy rings
They said, “We make bank, so we live like kings”
Pre-Chorus
That’s all I need to hear, I have the proof I need
These boys will learn you can’t live a life full of greed
I offer a drink, and we all make a toast
“Those who cheat in life deserve a lethal dose”
Chorus
We only have one life (Don’t throw it away)
We can’t get back the time (For our mistakes)
The world won’t slow down, it keeps spinning around
We only have one life (Don’t throw it away)
We can’t get back the time (For our mistakes)
So let’s make it count, before our time runs out
Bridge
You can count your money, but you can’t buy time
When your wealth is gone, who will stand by your side?
You can count your money, but you can’t buy time
You may be rich, but your heart’s not worth a dime
Chorus
We only have one life (Don’t throw it away)
We can’t get back the time (For our mistakes)
The world won’t slow down, it keeps spinning around
We only have one life (Don’t throw it away)
We can’t get back the time (For our mistakes)
So let’s make it count, before our time runs out
