I've tried so damn hard to convince her   But my plea's in vain   I still feel the same as I did   Could you call her, maybe tell her   It Might sound right from you   I don't know what else to do   Would you try?   Now we're older, things are stranger   Then they've ever been   Now I'm scared of death   For the first time   All my friends say I look better   But my health is gone   Smoking far too much   All the time   Take your future in your own hands   Don't rush, take your time   Look around and find   Your friends   Come together, love each other   Spit on those who say   This is not the way   Let them die   And whgat goes up must come down   So I can't talk right now   And maybe it's easy to believe   That once once in your life, once your life   You'll find the love that you have always had   Realise that before you knew nothing at all
