Switchfoot is an alternative rock band from San Diego, California. The band was formed in 1997 with the brothers Jonathan Foreman (lead singer/guitarist) and Tim Foreman (bass). Long-time friend Chad Butler (drums) joined soon after. Eventually the band evolved to what it is today with the addition of members Jerome Fontamillas (key/guitar/electronics - formerly of Mortaland Fold Zandura) and Drew Shirley (guitar - formerly of All Together Separate). Although the band started out playing at Christian music festivals, they shun the label of "Christian rock," with singer and guitarist Jon Foreman saying, "For us, it's a faith, not a genre.

Life And Love And Why Lyrics

Switchfoot

Life and love and why.
Child, adult, then die
All of your hoping and all of your searching for what?
Ask me for what am I living and what gives me strength that i'm willing to die for.

Take away from me this monstrosity
'Cause my futile thinking's not gonna solve nothing tonight
Ask me for what am I living and what gives me strength that I’m willing to die for

Could it be this?
Could it be bliss?
Could it be all that I ever had missed?
Could it be true?
Can life be new,
And can I be used?
Can I be used?

Give me a reason for life and for death.
And a reason for drowning while I hold my breath.
Something to laugh at, a reason to cry.
With everyone hopeless and hoping for something to hope for.
Yeah, with something to hope for.

Could it be true?
Can life be new?
Could it be all that I am is in You?
Could it be this?
Could it be bliss?
Can it be You?
Can it be You?
