"While I'm Still Here" lyrics

"While I'm Still Here"

Only thing I've ever done
Ticking time is running out
Closest I have ever come
Ticking time is running out
Oh, so tired on my own
Ticking time is running out
Best days I have ever known
Ticking time is running out

Yesterday I found out the world was ending
Yesterday I found out the world was ending

A little more
Every day
Falls apart and
Slips away
I don't mind
I'm okay
Wish it didn't have to end this way

These four walls are closing in
Ticking time is running out
Oh, all the things that might have been
Ticking time is running out
Watch young lovers walking by
Ticking time is running out
God forgive me if I cry
Ticking time is running out

A little more
Every day
Falls apart and
Slips away
I don't mind
I'm okay
Nothing ever
Stays the same
While we can
Remember when
Always were, yeah
Even then
Stay with me
Hold me near
While I'm still here
