Godspeed
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Burning down "Neverland" (Scatter the ashes!)
White lights black, tie the mansions
Is this another debt by misadventure?
Tell me what you got, what you really got
We'll rest in our graves,
Lexington cross our veins
Sleepers can't just wake the dead
When needles and lovers collapse on guilty beds
Fall asleep (don't fall asleep)
Don't fall asleep
(They lied when they said the good die young!)
They lied when they said the good die young!
Woah-oh-ah-oh
They lied when they said the good die young!
Stay with me, stay with me tonight
Burning down bridges now, scatter the ashes
Godspeed to all your efforts
Is this the life left to just remember
Tell me who you were, who you really were
Kill yourself so they owe the time, fashion statement suicide
She's asleep in the Chelsea Hotel
Bad turn to worse, and then worse turn into hell
Fall asleep, don't fall asleep
Don't fall asleep
(God save the eyes that doomed tonight!)
They lied when they said the good die young!
Woah-oh-ah-oh
They lied when they said the good die young!
Stay with me, stay with me tonight
Woah-oh-ah-oh
They lied when they said the good die young!
Woah-oh-ah-oh
They lied when they said the good die young!
Stay with me, stay with me tonight
They lied when they said the good die young!
Stay with me, stay with me tonight
