Breaking in a sweat, like a bomb threat
Here's your silhouette fading out
Nothing left to lose, detonate the fuse
Another break in this blow out

Ain't it beautiful? So unusual?
Life's a guess and it's running out
Live in a cliche, gonna seize the day
Bottle rockets to celebrate

Carpe diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask for reason and no reply
Are we all too young to die?

Making a living, making a killing
What's worth forgiving? A lie?

A blink of an eye, barely scraping by
Dominated by passer-bys
Feeling out of luck, when the traffic's stuck
And you're feeling so left behind

Getting off a binge, get a second wind
Another promise to make a change
Got a broken wing, hear the angel sing
When the single is out of range
Ain't it strange?

Carpe diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask for reason and no reply
Are we all too young to die?

Making a living, making a killing
What's worth forgiving? A lie?

Making a living, making a killing
What's worth forgiving? A lie?

Carpe diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask for reason and no reply
Are we all too young to die?
