Lyrics
Die Young
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.
Lessons on a railroad track
And for a peny you can ride
Watch it change before your eyes
As you wave goodbye
A failure in an unmarked grave
With a photo I tried to save
It might say a million words
But none of them are true
Holding on to nothing
Is all I used to do, and saying
That I gotta get out of here
And I don't care if it takes all night
It might take a hundred years
So I won't die young
What you take from pain is victory
And a compliment to tragedy
Watch it fade, and drive away
From the wreckage of your life
'Cause there's a knife and fingerprints
A "sorry" letter she never sent
It probably says a million things
But none of them are true
And holding on to something
Is all she'll ever do, and saying
That I gotta get out of here
And I don't care if it takes all night
It probably takes a hundred years
So I won't die young
Man, I gotta get out of here
I don't care if I drive all night
It might take a million years
So I won't die young on this lonesome run
So pay respects to where you've been
If you look ahead it's easier to see
That we gotta get out of here
And I don't care if it takes all night
It might take a million years
Se we won't die young
We all gotta get out of here
We shouldn't care if it takes our lives
It might take a million years if we never try
We might as well die young
We might as well die young
