To Live and Let Go

Rush of the past
I quietly crash and the tables turn
You're beautifully strange, defiantly brash
Be careful now
Kid, you're a cut above
Always just a cut above the rest
If there's something left to be learned
Then my time is running
Why should I waste it all?
Wasted on you
I shouldn't be trusted to live and let go
When the last of my cities have burned
Then what's left in nothing
Why did I waste it all?
Wasted on you
I couldn't be trusted to live and let go
Fill in the blanks
Pencil on paper, disposable
Throw away lines intentional but unbelievable
Kid, you're a cut above
Always just a cut above the rest
If there's something left to be learned
Then my time is running
Why should I waste it all?
Wasted on you
I shouldn't be trusted to live and let go
When the last of my cities have burned
Then what's left in nothing
Why did I waste it all?
Wasted on you
I couldn't be trusted to live and let go
Shaken and tried
Fade and resign as the tables turn
Let slip away
The renegade life you've been dreaming of
Kid, you're a cut above
Always just a cut above the rest
If there's something left to be learned
Then my time is running
Why should I waste it all?
Wasted on you
I shouldn't be trusted to live and let go
When the last of my cities have burned
Then what's left in nothing
Why did I waste it all?
Wasted on you
I couldn't be trusted to live and let go
