Cheat Death

I make it look so easy
It's just 'cause I know the secrets
I heard you called burnt out
Look up, behold the phoenix

You're angsty and depressed
I know the situation
A few short-lived pleasures
Followed by annihilation

Transient joys are the sweetest
Listless lives are the bleakest
(What have I become?)

Life is brief
Flicker and die
Life is brief

I'll make it up as I go
I'm easy likе the way the wind blows
You silly girls
You poor kids chasing vapors
It's not a simple thing
It's quitе hard to be human
But you can make it fun
Once you know what you're doin'

Transient joys are the sweetest
Listless lives are the bleakest
What have I become?

Life is brief
Flicker and die
Life is brief
And you're still wasting time
