[Verse 1]

There's a live oak tree you can still see off all 129

You can see the scars its missing bark

Where it stopped my truck that night

They say I took a swing at my best friend

For trying to take my keys

Next thing I knew I was upside down

Thinking this is it for me

[Chorus]

When you see life flash before your eyes

The good the bad the wrong the right

Fade into a bright white line

Shining down on you

Your hanging on by a thread

Wondering which ones your last breath

Knowing there's so much you have left to do

Live your life a better man

When you've been, halfway to heaven

[Verse 2]

First thing I did was hug my momma

I even hugged my dad

Told them both how much I love them

Never saw daddy cry like that

Started hanging out with my little brother

Man I never missed a game

I'm in church every Sunday morning

I pray everyday

[Chorus]

When you see life flash before your eyes

The good the bad the wrong the right

Fade into a bright white line

Shining down on you

Your hanging on by a thread

Wondering which ones your last breath

Knowing there's so much you have left to do

Live your life a better man

When you've been, halfway to heaven

[Bridge]

I won't waste, one minute

Yeah my life's changed

And I'm going to live it

[Chorus]

Like I'm hanging on by a thread

Wondering which ones my last breath

Knowing there's so much I have left to do

I live my life a better man

I live my life a better man

Cause I've been, halfway to heaven
