Live and Learn

**Live and Learn** is a hard rock song by the band **Crush 40**, who are well-known for their work on numerous tracks from the *Sonic the Hedgehog series*. Live and Learn was used as the main theme for Sonic Adventure 2, acting as the subsidiary to Open Your Heart from Sonic Adventure. Being released on June 18th of 2001, the song features Johnny Gioiell as the vocalist and lyricist, Katsuji on drums, Takeshi Tenada on bass, and Jun Senoue as the guitarist and arranger. Live and Learn was used as not only the main theme for Sonic Adventure 2, but also as the final boss theme, which is why the song tends to generally be associated with Super Sonic and Super Shadow.

The track was later remixed dozens of times, alongside being used in many different places, such as the *Sonic Adventure Music Experience* and *Sonic Runners*.

## Lyrics

Can you feel life moving through your mind?

Looks like it came back for more! yeah!

Can you feel time slipping down your spine?

You try and try to ignore, yeah!

But you can hardly swallow,

Your fears and pain!

When you can't help but follow,

It puts you right back where you came!

Live and Learn!

Hangin' on to the edge of tomorrow!

Live and Learn!

From the works of yesterday!

Live and Learn!

If you beg or if you borrow!

Live and Learn!

You may never find your way!

Can you feel life tangle you up inside? (yeah!)

And now your face down on the floor, oh!

But you can't save your sorrow,

You've paid in trade!

When you can't help but follow,

It puts you right back where you came!

Live and Learn!

Hangin' on to the edge of tomorrow!

Live and Learn!

From the works of yesterday!

Live and Learn!

If you beg or if you borrow!

Live and Learn!

You may never find your way!

There's a face searching far, so far and wide,

There's a place where you dreamed you'd never find!

Hold on to what if...

Hold on to what if...

Live and Learn!

Hangin' on to the edge of tomorrow!

Live and Learn!

From the works of yesterday!

Live and Learn!

If you beg or if you borrow!

Live and Learn!

You may never find your way!

Live and Learn!

Hangin' on to the edge of tomorrow!

Live and Learn!

From the works of yesterday!

Live and Learn!

If you beg or if you borrow!

Live and Learn!

You may never find your way!

Live and Learn!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Live and Learn!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
