Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for faith-departed
And I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice when I shout it out loud
(Romeo!)
[Verse 2]
It's my life, it's now or never
And I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life, my heart is like an open highway
And I'm just gonna do it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life
[Verse 3]
Well, William, I hope you're very impressed with yourself
You know what? I really am, haha
[Verse 4]
This is for the ones who stood their ground
(Romeo! Romeo! Romeo!)
For Romeo and Juliet who never backed down
(Romeo! Romeo! Romeo! Romeo!)
Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky, gotta make your own breaks
[Verse 5]
It's my life, it's now or never
And I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life, my heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said, I did it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life
[Verse 6]
April, I'm engaged
Again
It's– so much is happening in so little time
[Verse 7]
So much is happening
And, whatever happens
I will be here for you
And you will be fine
[Verse 8]
It's my life, it's now or never
And I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life, my heart is like an open highway
And I'm just gonna do it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
[Verse 9]
Go, Romeo! You're her only hope
You're back from the dead
[Verse 10]
I know
It's super dope!
[Verse 11]
Ugh
[Verse 12]
Better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down
[Verse 13]
It's my life, it's now or never
And I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life, my heart is like an open highway
And I'm just gonna do it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
[Verse 14]
It's Romeo
Herefore art thou, Romeo
[Verse 15]
(Alive!) Romeo? You're alive?
(Alive!) I'm alive and I came back for my wife
(Alive!)
[Verse 16]
Oh shit!
[Verse 17]
It's my life
