In The Floodlight

Eyes bright, teeth white
Homegrown dogfight
Hope I don't scare you away
Cold stare, play fair
Unbound, beware
Think I got locked in the cage
We live and die young, live and die young, in the floodlight
We live and die young, live and die young
I tried, tongue tied
Feet cold, stage fright
Running from facing your gaze
I died inside
Oceans I've cried
Now there's not crying for me
We live and die young, live and die young, in the floodlight
We live and die young, live and die young,
Truth told, heart bold
That's new not old
Think I stopped running away
Pour out my mouth
These words have clout
Guess I've got something to say
We live and die young, live and die young,
begging for our fate
We live and die young, live and die young, in the floodlight
We live and die young, live and die young
Hope, that's where my reason goes
Hope, that's where my reason goes I know
