Strung out and broken A boy wastes away Picked up the bottle And drinks it down before he hits the stage He doesn't know what to do so he just throws it away He sees the man he could be Then as he falls to his knees, he snorts another rail Always said he'd be the one But it's only just begun Living life as if you're dying tomorrow Always knew you'd be someone One wrong turn and it's all gone Living life as if you're dying tomorrow You're flying too close to the sun Sex fueled and lonely Fucked up and dumb Spent all his money on a drug dealer on speed dial No.1 He knows he'll die on his knees He feels like he's trapped in a cage Why should he care anyway? He sits and lights up a smoke He pulls it back 'til he chokes and snorts another rail Always said he'd be the one But it's only just begun Living life as if you're dying tomorrow Always knew you'd be someone One wrong turn and it's all gone Living life as if you're dying tomorrow You're flying too close to the sun
