I wanna live fast, love hard
you know I'm bound to die real young
Sometimes I feel like breaking out
like a bullet trapped inside a gun

You tell me slow down, straighten out
think about the time to come
I'll never be your working class hero
regretful of a life unsung

You say I don't know what I'm doing
the road I'm on just leads to ruin
I'm bound to get a royal s_______
But let me tell you, I don't feel the same
Sometimes I think this life is just a game
(and I'm playing it to win)

Oh I'm gonna live fast, love hard
you know I'm bound to die real young
You don't understand I'm running for the roses
there's nothing that I'm running from

I wanna see just where the time goes
I'm running where the wild wind blows
I'm look through tomorrow's windows
It doesn't matter just how long I last
the more you live, you just live for your past

You see my life is just a mirror
you see your world, it's joy and terror
How can I make it any clearer
You point your finger and you say I'm bad
but it's the only kind of life I've ever had
