Cheat Death

I make it look so easy

It’s just 'cause I know the secrets

I heard you called burnt out

Look up, behold the phoenix

You’re angsty and depressed

I know the situation

A few short-lived pleasures

Followed by annihilation

Transient joys are the sweetest

Listless lives are the bleakest

(What have I become?)

Life is brief

Flicker and die

Life is brief

I'll make it up as I go

I’m easy like the way the wind blows

You silly girls

You poor kids chasing vapors

It’s not a simple thing

It’s quite hard to be human

But you can make it fun

Once you know what you’re doin'

Transient joys are the sweetest

Listless lives are the bleakest

(What have I become?)

Life is brief

Flicker and die

Life is brief

And you’re still wasting time
