Die Young

She's made her peace with her demons, so she's not alone Sound asleep in the back seat on the drive home I'm drunk on ideas of what will kill us faster Eyes firmly fixed on our next disaster So let me know what curses you wear on your sleeve And let me know what sickness is the flavour of the week I've got a smile like a broken record So sing your saddest songs on repeat Well, I'm so tired of idle, We're far from perfect but I'm okay with denial I've got these fears that tessellate through the threads in the wool I miss the smell of smoke and the whiskey in a glass half full I don't want to die young, I don't want to die young I don't want to die young, I don't want to die young anymore Stay beautiful, stay beautiful, stay beautiful Before I left I wrote you a letter Said, "It's going to get worse before it gets any better" So take a good hard look into these tired eyes Because they're going to be tired for quite some time I don't want to die young, I don't want to die young I don't want to die young, I don't want to die young anymore Would you kill for me? Because I'd kill for you I'd lay the world at your feet I'd tear the world apart so you could stay beautiful Stay beautiful, stay beautiful, stay beautiful Kill for me Can you please just hold on? Lately you've started to fade How are we so far gone? Look at the mess you've made So please don't say a word, because I already know That you've been drifting for days, my heart's no longer your home I know we're dying lover, I've seen it in your eyes And honestly? I die a little inside each time I'd take the lives of thousands, tear apart the world Because love is the violence inside us all I don't want to die young, I don't want to die young I don't want to die young, I don't want to die young anymore Would you kill for me? Because I'd kill for you I'd lay the world at your feet Tear it to pieces for you I don't want to die young, I don't want to die young I don't want to die young, I don't want to die young anymore Would you kill for me? Because I'd kill for you I'd tear the world apart so you could stay beautiful Stay beautiful, stay beautiful, stay beautiful Kill for me
