Lyrics

From the age of eight they told me drugs would go and rot my brain
But lets have another drink and waste away
“Stop looking for a catch
a good future has demands,
just let us pour all this fear onto your plate”
From the age of twelve they said that
sex would come kill my faith
“There’ll never be a pardon for you, boy!
I can see you’re in a state!
A sinner once a sinner always
Oh well what would your father say?”

Now all my friends are high and out their minds
“Its alright its alright its alright”
My life was a lie, I’ve wasted my time
“Its alright its alright its alright”
But now its all totally fucked
so I’m giving up
lets get down lets get down lets go down while we’re up
All my friends are high sitting outside
watching the sky

Now I’m in my 20s and Im wrecked and sad and shaky
The lies they told me settled in my brain
I stayed bored and broken hearted went to parties, never partied
kept the safety on, and now its all too late
But in this strangest circumstance I think it’s kinda gone my way
It’s over now, just think of it! My life’s my own no telling what I’ll make
The rules and laws were full of it, liars, crooks and hypocrites
Oh think of all the things I could escape
They told me I could die but what’s the point in being alive
If all you do is spend it waiting for the grave?
No I won’t repent my life away

Now all my friends are high and out their minds
“Its alright its alright its alright”
My life was a lie, I’ve wasted my time
“Its alright its alright its alright”
But now its all totally fucked
so I’m giving up
lets get down lets get down lets go down while we’re up
All my friends are high sitting outside
watching the sky

All my friends, in the end, will we say what we meant?
will we toast to our deaths on this last cigarette?
And my friends, in the end, will we live till we’re dead?
on the memories we made that we get to forget
(And now it’s all totally fucked)
All my friends, in the end, will we’e say what we meant?
(So I’m giving up)
will we toast to our deaths on this last cigarette?
(lets get down lets get down lets go down while we’re up)
And my friends, in the end, will we live till we’re dead?
All my friends are high sitting outside)
on the memories we made that we get to forget
(Watching the sky)
while we’re here
