Get stomped like a snake Lie down in the dirt Cling to my convictions Even when I get hurt Be an upstanding, well-loved man about town In your child's mind that's how it goes down But I try the losing side I don't want to die in here I don't want to die in here Drift down into the new dark light Without any reservations You found my breaking point Congratulations Spent too much of my life now trying To play fair Throw my better self overboard Shoot at him when he comes up for air Come unhinged Get revenge I don't want to die in here I don't want to die in here Stay good under pressure for years and years and years and years President of the fan club up there choking on his tears Let all the trash rain down From way up in the rafters I'm walking out of here in one piece Don't care what comes after Drive the wedge Torch the bridge I don't want to die in here I don't want to die in here
