One thing that I’m very disappointed about this new song of his, is that, this song have also been covered by an Irish Band called The Script. The arrangement style is a perfect impersonation of The Script cover. I’m not that really happy too, I believe the 1st single of his should be original written and composed by special and talented composer.

For this, its like a cover of what he previously done during his weekly moment at American Idol.

But I hope it can reach a hit, but I’m more confident his new album as a whole will; which has not yet been named, will be great. The schedule of Kris Allen new album is on November 17 (which is the same date OneRepublic releases their 2nd Album “Waking Up“).

Kris Allen – “Live Like We’re Dying” Lyrics

Sometimes we fall down and can’t get back up
We’re hiding behind skin that’s too tough
How come we don’t say I love you enough
Till it’s too late, it’s not too late

Our hearts are hungry for a food that won’t come
We could make a feast from these crumbs
And we’re all staring down the barrel of a gun
So if your life flashed before you, what would you wish you would’ve done

[Chorus]
Yeah, gotta start
Looking at the hand of the time we’ve been given here
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin’ it
Every second counts on a clock that’s tickin’
Gotta live like we’re dying
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
To turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we’re dying

And if you plane fell out of the skies
Who would you call with your last goodbyes
Should be so careful who we live out of our lives
So when we long for absolution, there’ll be no one on the line

(Chorus)

Like we’re dying (x4)

(Chorus)

You never know a good thing until it’s gone
you never see a crash until its head on
All these people right when we’re dead wrong,
You never know a good thing till it’s gone

(Chorus)

Like we’re dying (x4)

(Chorus)

By words, I can’t really describe OneRepublic songs, most of it I find it as unhappy condition; for example their first ever single ‘Apologize‘ being “Its too late to apologize” is something that you actually don’t want to be in. And their new single ‘All The Right Moves‘ is even more depressing, by repeating that “they (We) are going down”. Reviewing back from their first album, I assimilate their song lyrics to be an “out reaching” album and its kinda like shouting for “help” type of genre. So I’m really looking forward hows the arrangements of their coming new album this November.

Trivia: I started to love OneRepublic, on the day Apologize was premiere (re-released) in September 2007. Original Released in 2006.

All The Right Moves Lyrics

All the right *things in all the wrong places
Someday, we’re going down
They’ve got all the right moves and all the wrong faces
Someday, we’re going down

Paint a picture of a perfect place
They’ve got it better than what anyone’s told you
They’ll be the King of Hearts, and you’ll be the Queen of Spades
And we’ll fight for you like we were your soliders

I know we’ve got it good
But they’ve got it made
And the grass is getting greener each day
I know things are looking up
But soon they’ll take us down
before everybody’s knowing our name.

They’ve got all the right *things in all the wrong places
Someday, we’re going down
They’ve got all the right moves and all the wrong faces
Someday, we’re going down

They said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we’re going
Yeah, we’re going down
They said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we’re going
Yeah, we’re going down

Do you think i’m special?
Do you think i’m nice?
Am I bright enough to shine in your spaces?
Between the noise you hear
And the sound you like
Are we just sinking in an ocean of faces?

It can be possible to make you fall,
Only when it’s over our heads
The sun is shining everyday, but it’s far away
All the world is dead.

They’ve got,
They’ve got all the right *things in all the wrong places
Someday, we’re going down
They’ve got all the right moves and all the wrong faces
Someday, we’re going down

They said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we’re going
Yeah, we’re going down
They said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we’re going
Yeah, we’re going down

It doesn’t matter what you see.
I know i could never be
Someone that looks like you.
It doesn’t matter what you say
I know i could never face
someone that could sound like you.

All the right *things in all the wrong places,
So yeah, we’re going down
They’ve got all the right moves and all the wrong faces
So yeah, we’re going down

All the right *things in all the wrong places,
So yeah, we’re going down
They’ve got all the right moves in all the wrong faces
So yeah, we’re going down

They said, everybody knows everybody knows where we’re going
Yeah we’re going down
They said, everybody knows everybody knows where we’re going
Yeah we’re going down

Yeah we’re going down
Yeah we’re going down

All the right moves
Yeah, we’re going down
All the right moves
Yeah, we’re going down
