Burn Out Bright - Switchfoot Lyrics

Does it have to start with a broken heart
Broken dreams and bleeding parts
We were young and world was clear
Young ambition disappears
I swore it would never come to this
The average, the obvious
I'm still discontented down here
I'm so discontented
If we only got one try
If we've only got one life
If time was never on our side
Before I die I want to burn out bright
So a spark ignites
In time and space
To make it through this human race
You fight and crawl your way back home
But you're running the wrong way
The future is a question mark
With kerosene electric sparks
There's still fire in you yet
Yeah there's still fire in you
If we only got one try
If we've only got one life
If time was never on our side
Before I die I want to burn out bright
I can't clean up the mess I've made
I can't clean up the mess I've made
Can't sleep in the bed I've made
Can't sleep in the bed I've made
If we only got one try
If we've only got one life
If time was never on our side
Before I die I want to burn out bright (x4)
If time was never on our side
Before I die I want to burn out bright
