Standing on some dotted line
   Reacting to the hands of time
   A circumstance that I¹ve been fed
   Leaving questions in my head
  
   Find the space that was left bare
   An empty space I¹d gladly share
  
   One must live while one must die
  
   Combined paired up for so many years
   Unsure if I really want to shed a tear
   Signing off is always so clearly done
   A number 2 is now reduced to one
  
   Find the space that was left bare
   An empty space I¹d gladly share
  
   When your clock is up
   And you rest for good
   I will cut off my armpiece
   Just like we agreed we would
  
   One must live while one must die
  
   While the other argues that
   The world ain¹t fair
   But then who ever promised
   Anybody equal share
   You might as well forget
   What you gambled on
   'Cause plans never go by the way they're drawn
  
   When your clock is up
   And you rest for good
   I will cut off my armpiece
   Just like we agreed we would
  
   One must live while one must die
  
   I can¹t say goodbye
   It¹s all I can do to get up every morning
   And when all else fails I try
   To face myself and everything else
   But mostly I wonder why
