Lyrics:
Too young to die, too old to break through
Too young to die, too old to break through
You say you’re leaving the city
It’s worn a hole in your soul
That you fill with the blood
Of all you did and didn’t do
All the lovers you took
Who went and used you for a fool
Photostrip in the kitchen
You spend a minute or two
In the light that’s all
In this life we can ever do
Keeping time with your heart
Like a beat on a cut shirt sleeve
Too young to die, too old to break through
Too young to die, too old to break through
We built a bomb and it’s ticking
Running just for the thrill
Of a slide through the crack
In a door that’s closing on you
Sold a lie at the start of a race
To the bottom of a hill
And tonight you’re still on the island
Don’t have to tell me
I have wasted all these years
Collecting and perfecting this game
Too young to die, too old to break through
Too young to die, too old to break through
Too young to die, too old to break through
So come on over, my love
All grown up but still short a buck
We’ll invite all the people you love
One more spin on the floor for luck
For luck, for luck
And happy, happy birthday, baby
This time next year won’t be so crazy
I hope you find what you’re looking for
Too young to die, too old to break through
Too young to die, too old to break through
