I feel so alive!
Taking over my mind as I land from yet another high
We will never die!
I proclaim as I tear away from this old tedious life
Don't you tell me that I'm young and reckless
Keep your own damn consequences
I'll go wherever I want
Let's see everybody's hands in the air say "HEY!"
You've got to live your life like you're on fire
"HEY!"
But when the flame goes out it's dark, I'm tired
How much further must I stumble through this darkness?
I'm freaking out and now I'm left so far behind
I've wasted so much of my life and time
I long for a home to be called mine
Give me one more chance where would I go, what would I do
It'll be for you
I starve, I quickly start to see
I am my own worst enemy
I am a slave to my own friends
I've lost what I began with
I starve, I quickly start to see
I am my own worst enemy
I am a slave to my own friends
I've lost what I began with
"HEY!"
You've got to live your life like you're on fire
"Hey!"
And then the flame goes out it's dark, I'm tired
How much further must I stumble through this darkness?
I'm freaking out and now I'm left so far behind
I've wasted so much of my life and time
I long for a home to be called mine
Give me one more chance where would I go, what would I do
It'll be for you
I can see by the way you walk who you are...
I can tell by the way you feel you've gone too far
What about me?
I've been here all this time
I'm the one you count on
I've worked here all my life and what do I get?
You've given him all he wants
Your good for nothing son
"HEY!"
You've got to live your life like you're on fire.
"Hey!"
And then the flame goes out it's dark, I'm tired
You don't have to be your only friend
You don't have to wait for me, I can see your soul
To you who boasts tomorrow's gain, I'll keep my words, I'll never say
You may win now, but there will never be silence
