Better To Burn

Don't shed tears, for past years - Move forward, put aside your tears
Try to live a while, try walk a mile - The shoes won't fit cos it's a different life style
In hindsight,you can seek advice - In ya parent's page,of ya bill of rights
Living their way, growing in the shade - When ya starved of the sun
Ya destined to wither away.
Regrets are one thing we all must live with
Beyond the clenched fist there's peace of mind
Years of moulding there stands a product
You must say get fucked, it's time to change.
Sheltered shingles shed your skin - Shake it off leave it behind.
Take a look how the other half live - What it's like on the other side
I'm telling you right now get a fucking life - Face the hate and the ridicule
Take It all in your stride
Gone in the blink of an eye why? - Did ya sit ya self on the side line
Gota push the limit to the red line - Gotta let ya old self die.
Inhalation of the evil smoke - Lets you rise to a higher sense
Liquid laughter from the demons drink - Drowns you leaves you breathless
But ya pick ya self up - And do it again the next day
Coz its better to burn out - Than it is to fade away.
GONE in the blink of an eye WHY? - Did ya sit ya self on the side line
PUSH the limit the limit to the red line - GONE in the blink of an eye WHY?
Did ya sit ya self on the side line - PUSH the limit the limit to the red line
Regrets are one thing we all must live with
Beyond the clenched fist there's peace of mind
Years of moulding there stands a product
You must say get fucked, it's time to change.
Sheltered shingles shed your skin - Shake it off leave it behind.
Take a look how the other half live - What its like on the other side
I'm telling you right now get a fucking life - Face the hate and the ridicule
Take It all in your stride
Gone in the blink of an eye why? - Did ya sit ya self on the side line
Gotta push the limit to the red line - Gota let ya old self die
