For those golden gates Well I wasn't given a key But I'm content to sit outside And panhandle for entry. Don't you wear that robe brother Don't you cast an eye 'Cause when you sink to the bottom of the barrel You have to drink yourself out or die Don't you cross my path, honey, Don't you wear my name It's probably for all the better If you went along your merry way All I'm asking of you friend Is that you give me my proper due And if I'm not paying attention Then you'll nudge me when it's my cue Sometimes, Life comes at you fast And you don't have time To put your hands up Sometimes Life comes as a surprise And it ain't Always a healthy one. I wish it were as simple as Turning it all up loud But as you can see I've grown older And am less likely to impress a crowd It's not these looks I'm worried 'bout But I might as well Smash up every mirror And take my fucking seven years in hell Your body screams for rest And you barely feel alive Well what is it your business Feeling this tired at 25? So concentrate All your heroes can And it ain't a product of mental imbalance But all the bullshit valued by this land. Sometimes Life comes at you fast And you don't have time To get your hands up Sometimes Life comes as a surprise And it ain't Always a healthy one Sometimes Life gives you the sides And other times your stuck on stage With nothing memorized. Go on and damn my name Go on and damn my name Go on and damn my name Go on and damn my name Go on and damn my name
