Tragedy
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.
You got your life cut short
No chance for what you wanted to do
It's cause you're marked for death
didn't know you were born to lose
You didn't see it coming
you couldn't see it coming
you couldn't start running
you should have started running
Born to lose - born to die too soon
Born to lose - life cut short
the devils looking for you
Born to lose - born to die too soon
Born to lose - life cut short
the devils looking for you
Punk Rock Tragedy - oh oh
You live your life too fast
doing too many drugs and booze
you didn't think you'd die
but now you die too soon
you got your life cut short
no chance for what you wanted to do
it's cause you're marked for death
didn't know you were born to lose
- what you gonna do
- your end had come too soon
- with music in your heart
- you exploded from the start
- the future is looking up
- now all that's left is dust
- what are we gonna do
- your end had come to fucking soon
