Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Set me off like dynamite
Strapped tight around my waist
We are the ones in competition
But claim this ain't no race
Let's go
[Verse 2]
Take a breath and explode like bullets
Tearing through the wind
Cut me up with a razor blade
Then try to separate the skin
[Verse 3]
Now in the
White flames of burin' flags we
Found a world worth dyin' for, yeah
We've been battered so hard
That we don't feel anymore
[Verse 4]
Take me from this world
Save me, what if we all die young?
So take me from this world
Save me, what if we all die young?
[Verse 5]
Send me off on the morning breeze
So far away from here
Fill your eyes in the strains of thought
Outside the warm, embracing air
I'm movin' slow
Like a glacier melting
Watch me dissipate
I search for love in an empty world
But all I found was hate
[Verse 6]
Now in the
White flames of burin' flags we
Found a world worth dyin' for, yeah
We've been battered so hard
That we don't feel anymore
[Verse 7]
Take me from this world
Save me, what if we all die young?
So take me from this world
Save me, what if we all die young?
[Verse 8]
Don't ask me why
'Cause I don't know
Don't ask me how
I'm gonna solve this on my own
Don't ask me why
'Cause I don't know
These things I've never faced
Scratch out the warning race
[Verse 9]
The wreckage of a job well done
I saw a place I'd never seen before, yeah
And that morning I refused
To close my eyes anymore
[Verse 10]
So take me from this world
Save me, what if we all die young?
So take me from this world
Save me, what if we all die young?
[Verse 11]
So take me
So take me
