Don't die young, don't get old Hey, gonna shine like gold Take every turn on the winding road Give me your hand, baby, don't let go They say there's a light at the end of the tunnel But we're living on sweet dreams and neon signs We can run but there

I'm goin' get up in the mornin', I believe I'll dust my broom Girlfriend, the black man you been lovin', girlfriend, can get my room I'm gon' write a letter, telephone every town I know I don't want no woman, wants every downtown man she meet I believe,

As a fair warning to everyone listening to this song I advise you to not hide your feelings Don’t pretend to be okay when you’re not okay Don’t pretend to be happy when you’re sad It’ll only lead to your misery Don't you fucking hate it when you hear my

Momma's so proud of you, you did so good on that report card today baby I'mma let you pick out whatever you want Ma, I can get any shoes I want? That's right, today is your day Momma don't have much, but I'll spend it all on you today Okay, I want these.

(Stop holding back) (Don't hold back) (Don't hold back) Gotta live wide awake Just keep your wits about you, don't let it end you And summon everything you've held up in reserve Don't fall for every single stolen glance and wink Try to keep your heart on

Don't let it end. Don't ever let it end. Well, I'm tired of pretending, but I'm terrified of it ending. I know if not for you there's nothing I could do, to ever let it end. And I know you feel the same way, because you told me drunk on your birthday.

Don't think I could forgive you Ya, you never said a word You didn't send me no letter See, our world is slowly dying I'm not wasting no more time Don't think I could believe you Ya, our hands will get more wrinkled And our hair, it will be grey And see

There is no forever, just today Don't let your sacrifice waste away Insinuations of what might be Trading life for life It all must fall It must end with us It must end with me Fight through deprivation There will be no sleep
