Background[]
J-Dog spoke with Artist Direct about the track. "We wrote Live Forever and Gravity at the same time. This is a subject matter and a chorus we've revisited so many times, but never actually wrote about it. Everyone wants to live forever. They're frustrated with the future and with this and that, but they don't actually appreciate what's in front of them. Everyone's unhappy because they don't appreciate what's in front of them. It's about enjoying yourself because you never know when you're going to die, bro."
Lyrics[]
J-Dog:
Living in right now, in heaven, in this town
'Cause I'll never fade away, I never needed a crown
We've only come this far, so cover up your scars
And I'll never feel the pain, I just look to the stars
Right, now
Danny: (Right, now)
J-Dog: It cuts me up but it's understood
That deep, down
Danny: (Deep, down)
J-Dog: It fucks me up but it feels so good
So never say never, it's every breath that I treasure
I'm in love with right now, tonight I'll live forever
Charlie Scene: Like whoa, whoa, live right now
It doesn't matter if you're heaven or hell bound
Like whoa, whoa, live right now
It doesn't matter if you're heaven or hell bound
Danny: Everybody wants to live forever, but who am I to say?
I just want a life we will remember, we're living for today
'Cause tonight we'll fight to take this world and make it all our own
Everybody wants to live forever, come and follow me, we'll never be alone
Johnny 3 Tears:
This is who I am, your soul is my romance
If everybody's letting go, let's do it with both hands
I've lived in the darkness, I'm tired of the shade
If everybody's letting go, I just wanna be saved
Right, now
Danny: (Right, now)
Johnny 3 Tears: This is who I wanna be
Deep, down
Danny: (Deep, down)
Johnny 3 Tears: All I want is everything
I mean every word and I mean every letter
And as long as you believe me, maybe we can live forever
Charlie Scene: Like whoa, whoa, live right now
It doesn't matter if you're heaven or hell bound
Like whoa, whoa, live right now
It doesn't matter if you're heaven or hell bound
Danny: Everybody wants to live forever, but who am I to say?
I just want a life we will remember, we're living for today
'Cause tonight we'll fight to take this world and make it all our own
Everybody wants to live forever, come and follow me, we'll never be alone
Funny Man: We're living right now, so sing it out loud
We're living right now, so sing it out loud
Danny and Funny Man: Let's go!
Danny: Everybody wants to live forever, but who am I to say?
I just want a life we will remember, we're living for today
'Cause tonight we'll fight to take this world and make it all our own
Everybody wants to live forever, come and follow me, we'll never be alone
Charlie Scene:
Like whoa, whoa, live right now
Danny:
(We'll never be alone)
Charlie Scene:
It doesn't matter if you're heaven or hell bound
Danny:
(We'll never be alone)
Charlie Scene:
Like whoa, whoa, live right now
Danny:
(We'll never be alone)
Charlie Scene:
It doesn't matter if you're heaven or hell bound
