You Can't Buy Tomorrow



and no matter how much i stack and stack
it'll never be enough that's a fact
So if i don't live past the night tonight
look past sky and up forever
Cuz what we cant buy
that's what makes life
so remember whenever the bombs ignite
I hope you know Christ
no matter how tight
You can't hold on
You cant buy tomorrow or borrow a moment
on top of the world or burried in burrows
somewhere a girl knows exactly the remedy
humming a melody
sunset tranquility
