I got in the car when I was just a kid
Used to live as a passenger
With my parents
My only navigator.
Life’s done a 180
Now I’m the driver
But I ask what sort of driver
Am I doing to be?
I wanna try this life thing
My own way
I wanna live this life thing
For this day!
I’ve stopped being the back seat driver
I lost the L’s
And here I am to stay
How long I cannot say.
Your only young once,
Your only alive this one time
Life or deaths a moment
As a reaction to a choice
Life’s taken a 180
And this time I’m at the wheel
I’m on the open Highway
There is just one keeping my foot off the floor.
I wanna try this life thing
My own way
I wanna live this life thing
For this day!
Do I have to take care of myself?
Would you forgive my self-abuse?
Is it my right to self-sabotage?
Or is it like suicide that I have to put how you’d feel first?
I don’t want to die today, but let me self-sabotage okay?
Life’s done a 180
And I’m out for experience
No regrets, no regrets
I wanna try this life thing
My own way
I wanna live this life thing
For this day!
Just wanna be reckless
Drive at 20 over the speed limit, at least
Wanna accelerate,
Wanna scream,
Wanna drink, wanna flirt
But wanna retain me
Wanna be me
Just me.
Life’s done a 180
And my evil twin is at the wheel
Drink it down till I feel dizzy
Throw it up till I’m empty
I wanna try this life thing
My own way
I wanna live this life thing
For this day!
To what point do I have the right to risk my life
Cause I wanna be reckless wanna risk it all
For the sake of feeling Alive.
If my bodies a temple
I might be sacrilegious
If my life is sacred,
I am not too religious
Life’s done a 180
On the most dangerous road this side of death
I’m at the wheel
Just not sure if I’m gonna;
Floor it.
I wanna try this life thing
My own way
I wanna live this life thing
For this day!
Drive down the highway at twice the posted speed limit, alive
Cause I’m so close to death.
Break others rules till I’m only held by my own
Run the red light,
Scrape the Curb
We are going out tonight
And we’re not coming back till light.
Life’s done a 180
And I’m sure I’m not alone
The road is long and with my friends and family I’ll share
The driving, the road, this life.
I wanna try this life thing
My own way
I wanna live this life thing
For this day!
Who are my passengers?
Who are my dezzies?
On the road of life?
Who do I trust?
Who would I never risk?
Life’s a companions Journey.
In risking me I’m risking you
And if I crash its not gonna be alone,
If were gonna crash in life were gonna do it together
Cause it’s the only way I know how
Crash and burn.
So I’ll jump in your car cause we’ll live or die together
We’ll laugh or cry together
But most of all we wont be alone;
And we’ll feel alive.
