L.f.d.y.

I am getting old

It's very unfamiliar

Youth is all I know

And play-dates with danger

Pat on the back for getting through that

Irony, imagine that

This is a common war

Timeless, universal

We just want more and more

And waste it all resisting

It's a sad fate to grow jaded

And it's a sad fate to be fading

I wanna stay naive

I wanna keep this short and sweet

That whole live fast, die young kind of thing

I'm not slowing down

Acceloexponential

Each second's shorter than the last

And each day shorter by the second

But the sky's still in the same place

And my feet still on the ground

Waiting patiently

Quiet desperation

It's all so alien to me

Cruel anticipation

But the sun's that same old white spot

Searing its name in my skin

I wanna stay naive

I wanna keep this short and sweet

That whole live fast, die young kind of thing

I don't remember ever feeling the world spinning

I guess I must be used to it by now

The plot's supposed to thicken while your hair is thinning

But I'm still offhandedly wasting the hours

And I'm pulling clumps of it out in the shower

I wanna stay naive

I wanna keep this short and sweet

That whole live fast, die young kind of thing
