Live Fast, Die Old (Live)

I bought myself back from the devil
Now I'm keeping it all for myself
I'm taking myself out of the program
Because I know what's best for my health

So why live the dream like you're running out of sleep?
I'm not playing to pass time, I'm playing for keeps
We only just started and you're throwing the fight

You'd rather burn out than fade away
Well why not both, I plan to stay
So let's do this once and let's do it right

I used to act like none of this mattered
And I used to say I didn't care
That we wouldn't be doing this forever
But then the truth is that I was just scared

So you put of a front to protect yourself
But if we're down on the floor, why get back on the shelf?
You can't change your outfit once the night has begun

You've got the fuel, we've still got the fire
So me and you, Jay, let's never retire
Let's keep on making mistakes till we're done
It won't last so be bold

I'm gonna live fast and I'm gonna die old
I'm gonna end my days in a house with high windows
On the quiet shores in the southwest

So you sort the tunes and I'll bring the beers
And on my seventieth birthday I'll see you right here
And together we'll watch the sun set

There's no one in my coffin
There's nothing in my grave
I'm tired of being damned
Yeah I'd rather be saved
And we can never sell out
Because we never bought in
And if they build it back up
Then we'll swing back through town
And burn the whole thing down again

I'm gonna live fast and I'm gonna die old
I'm gonna end my days in a house with high windows
On the quiet shores in the southwest

So you sort the tunes and I'll bring the beers
And on my seventieth birthday I'll see you right here
And together we'll watch the sun set

It won't last so be bold
Live fast, die old
Choose your path, show soul
Live fast, and die old
