They say that life goes on long after the thrill of living is gone and for some, that day comes sooner than for others.

lyrics

Well your sweet-sixteen was a bummer
And your twenty-first wasn't better
It took a whole lotta liquor and drugs to make it tolerable
And the guys that got you off are you Facebook friends but you never talk
They're just pictures scrolling up a screen when your boss ain't looking

And you can't look back
But you do anyway
And the kids seem younger these days
No, you shouldn't look back
But I know you will anyway
And you'll feel so old

Well your life feels like a Lou Reed song
The same two chords and a monotonous voice
But the people that you love best say it's really quite brilliant
And you're holding out for the next big thing
Each day it gets a little bit close
But playing the scratch-cards dirties up your nails

And the government check seems a long time coming
So you just move on
And that hospital bed doesn't feel real yet
So you go on living
