lyrics

If you are up to save the world tonight then I will stand, by your side. Life is the death of us all! Mad dog on the run, my bad habits got me married to the worst hangover. Kicking back like shooting guns. What to do with the time when you’re past twenty-five in life? Sweet, simple days, I was blessed with the best of naivety. Elemental teenage dreams, somewhere around sixteen. Pen on paper stories about girls I would never date. And now I’m still growing up fast but I’m breaking down faster. Here’s the law: every world at my feet puts the sky on my shoulders. Up all night, downing drinks to forget, soak back full packs to take off the edge. Violence, we are so violent, so narrow minded. Eyes locked on those easily undressed, the worst sex, can feel good if you need it. Violence, because we’re violent and we don’t mind it. Sweet, simple days, spending nights at my place like a family. Trading cards, press start! Rental videogames. A toast I’d like to make to our long forgotten innocent ways. Trigger off a bona fide desire to make something from nothing. God, what of these makeshift fantasies? I need something profound. I wish there was a way to get away with murder cause I could kill for some innocence.
