Living Life

I will not die an
unlived life.
I will not live in fear
of falling or catching fire.
I choose to inhabit my days,
to allow my living to open me,
to make me less afraid,
more accessible,
to loosen my heart
until it becomes a wing,
a torch, a promise.
I choose to risk my significance;
to live so that which came to me as seed
goes to the next as blossom
and that which came to me as blossom,
goes on as fruit.

LP: Into the Wild

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the commercial where LP sings part of "Into the Wild" and here are the lyrics I've found online:

Into The Wild - LP lyrics

Are we on the lonely side

Say oh now the past long away

Are we're so lost in the dark of our hearts

That there's no light of day

No oh oh oh

No oh oh oh

1, 2, 3, 4!

Somebody left the gate open

You know we got lost on the way

Come save us a runaway train

Goin insaane(?)

How do we How do we not fade

how do we how do we how do we not fade away

how do we how do we ooooh

Into the wild

how are we living living living

Into the wild

How are we living living living

Wooohooo

Wooohoohoo

Heeeyy

Heeey

Oh please believe me Im more scared than not

That oh now this isnt the way

And please be there I can barely hang on

But oh I wait til I break

Yea eh eh eh

Yea eh eh eh

Somebody left the gate open

You know we got lost on the way

Come save us a runaway train

Goin insane

how do we how do we not fade

how do we how do we how do We not fade away

How do we how do we ooooooooh

Into the wild

How are we living living living

Into the wild

How are we living living living

Wooohoooh!

Woohooahoo

Heeeeyyy

Heeey
