If I were you, I would have packed it in
A long time ago, before the cold set in and
Took your toe, and now you're dreaming of
A time when you could run, a time when you had time to have fun
If you were me, I'm betting you'd do things
A little differently, keeping me blind to things
You wish you didn't see, but all I want is to be
Brave enough to dare or stupid enough to just not care
I wanna die young, I wanna die young
Before my life has lost It's fun
I'm gonna die young, I'm gonna die young
If things get hard then I have got this gun
What can you do when you've got bills to pay
And they're on to you, and every plan you make
Just keeps on falling through. It makes me wonder
Why we try to build a life when no ones one our side, it's not right
I wanna die young, I wanna die young
Before my life has lost It's fun
I'm gonna die young, I'm gonna die young
If things get hard then I have got this gun
