The Eschatones - Die Young (Acoustic)

I don't wanna die young
Don't wanna die young
It doesn't seem like much fun
To lose it all without the wisdom

But how can I oblige?
When the shackles in my mind
Keep tying me down to the same old things
That destroy my soul again and again and again

Don't wanna lose you
I don't wanna lose you
It'll break my heart in two
To cast away the only thing that's true

But how can you take all the same mistakes?
Patience only lasts so long
Until it breaks and when it breaks it breaks and shatters
All over the place

If you want to love me, if you want to play the part
If you want to stay true, then slap me awake from
This nightmare that I've built and cemented in
Please pull the plug on this circuit that
I can't escape from

Is that your light still on in our bedroom?
Can you cover me up just like an angel?
I feel your warmth and love, it's all around me
I feel your heartbeat blanket and surround me

I don't wanna die young
Don't wanna die young
It doesn't seem like much fun
To lose it all without the wisdom

But how can I oblige?
When the shackles in my mind
Keep tying me down to the same old things
That destroy my soul again and again and again

Don't wanna lose you
I don't wanna lose you
It'll break my heart in two
To cast away the only thing that's true

But how can you take all the same mistakes?
Patience only lasts so long
Until it breaks and when it breaks it breaks and shatters
All over the place

If you want to love me, if you want to play the part
If you want to stay true, then slap me awake from
This nightmare that I've built and cemented in
Please pull the plug on this circuit that
I can't escape from

Is that your light still on in our bedroom?
Can you cover me up just like an angel?
I feel your warmth and love, it's all around me
I feel your heartbeat blanket and surround me
