lyrics

Suicide life live and die by the knife, though I never aim to kill always cutting for the thrill, thoughts and pain in my brain won't you please go away, I'm sick of self medicating and it's nice out today I wanna play, like I did as a kid, out on the farm like I was Billy the Kid, growin' up poor thats just what we did, always outside cuz thats just where we hid from reality, but now it's hit me that I'm older, fighting so hard it's got me feelin' like a soldier, testing my resolve this weight is heavy as a boulder, God it sucks getting older, but does it, I got a mother and a family I'm feelin' so low not even they can understand me, its tragic cuz I wish that I could let them all in, take them way back to where my story begins, sometimes my life it feels like a sin, feelin so low I fear the Devil may win, everybody's outside looking in, and I don't wanna wait if it means forever no,

So have a nice life and be on your way, remember to be brave and that I'm never far away, follow your dreams no matter where they lead, your biggest mistake would be not to believe,

Summer '09 in a Dodge Ram van, playing city after city with my closest friends. Skateboarding and Pokémon and one night stands and alcohol, no dreams about anything else because we thought we had it all. And hey, I guess we really did. We accomplished quite a lot for only being kids, but $4 a day is no way to live and it wasn't very long before I quit.

You see, I met a girl and saw a barbecue and said "hey, you know that's something that I wanna do. Suburban living drew me in, it stole my youth and made me lust for it and ... God, it sucks getting older.

But does it?

I've got a job I love, and friends that talk to me about their lives and always understand me. These types of bonds were made to last, unlike the reckless friends I surrounded myself with in the past.

But back then life was so carefree, feeling so high, like nothing could phase me. Yet once I started moving on I became free.

I don't wanna wait if it means forever.

So have a nice life and be on your way, remember to be brave and that I'm never far away, follow your dreams no matter where they lead, your biggest mistake would be not to believe,
