Live (for my birthday)


making funny faces


You want to know the truth?
Enjoy yourself
Stop beating around the bush
Find somebody to love
The heart stops soon enough
and the blood grows iron poor
The calcium is gonna flow from your bones
You're gonna look old, really old

So what?
If there's joy in your heart
If there's love in your eyes
You'll survive and
Everyone will thrive
So throw away the alibis and
Reach your bloody emotional prime
Live the risk, laugh or cry
Dive in, the water's fine
