I Want To Live Lyrics - This Mortal Coil

I've gathered all my lifetime memories of you. 

My lusty sentiments they made life seem true. 

I'm rather selfish and I mean to be unkind. 

You can't imagine what it does to me inside. 

But where am I? I want to die. 

I want to live. I want to die. 

If I were someone I would like to be a fool. 

No one would know me and I think that would be cool. 

I'd paint a picture of my life upon your wall. 

And use the colors that have made life seem small. 

But where am I? I want to die. 

I want to live. I want to die. 

But you've got a way of understanding me. 

And I just call it one of your mysteries 

But you know that you've got to stay close to me, close to me. 

But where am I? I want to die. 

But where am I? I want to die. 

I want to die. 

I want to give. 

I want to die. 

Die die die die, 

die die die die.
