  • When they cart me away
    Will I say that I died already
    Years ago?

    I got so stuck in my ways
    That's no way to behave
    Got so tired before I noticed I was done
    I felt like I covered my tracks
    No one had my back
    Just so you know
    All of this battling goes so slow

    Young up
    You young punk
    The end is coming
    And fear not
    You young pup
    That everything that falls is falling

    Was I just making it up
    Pushing my luck
    I got tired before I noticed
    If I'd corrupted the core asking for more

    Just so you know
    All of this battling goes so slow
    So I looked into your eyes and said
    Then I looked into my own eyes and said to myself

    Young up
    You young buck
    The end's not coming
    Fear not
    You young punk
    That everything that falls is falling

    Even if you don't have your own back (even if you don't have your back)
    And everything that needs to fall has fallen Writer/s: Dominic Salole, Leslie Feist
