Mend one, break one
As above so below
It's slipping through your fingers
The tighter you try to hold
So let it loose see how it spins
And dances in the light
Detach from desire
And exist in delight

And live and let it die
We live and let it die

It's getting hotter every day
I can hear her knocking at my door
She says "Babe, learn how to stay
Before you ask for any more"
I'm rolling down the road a spell
I'm rambling til the early light
I trust our love to work it out
I learn to sink and not to fight

I live and let it die
I live and let it die

And no one said this would be easy
Nobody said it would be this hard
And if we'd stop a while we'll see that
There's no one here who can harm us if
We would stop harming ourselves

We live and let it die
We live and let it die

Mend one, break one
As above so below
It's slipping through your fingers
The tighter you try to hold
So let it loose see how it spins
And dances in the light
Detach from desire
Exist in delight
