Mess With the Best, Die Like the Rest

lyrics

Lyrics:
I lost the
I lost the
I lost the moon
I lost the
I lost the
I lost the moon
I lost the
I lost the
I lost the moon
From counting all the stars

I can see into your heart
Just by looking at your shadow
Your translucent skin
Houses love, like the love hidden in
The Chateaux

Got the heart of a pitbull baby
Got the heart of a pitbull, yeah
Got the heart of a pitbull baby
And my belly ain't full
Got the heart of a pitbull baby
Got the heart of a pitbull, yeah
Got the heart of a pitbull baby
And my belly, and my belly ain't full

Born to learn to die
Only drink when I'm sad and I'm sad all the time
Talk to the man in the sky
'bout how this city has lied
Start to read all your minds
If rock n roll ain't dead, then it's dying
It's dying, oh

It's dying
It's dying
It's dying

It's cold when the wind blows
It's cold when everyone knows but me
As the saying goes, "when I know who I am then I'll be free"
And as the time goes
Quicker than it is for you to breathe
You'll hear the bell tolls
And you know you're gonna find me guilty

Yeah

You mess with the best, ah
Then you'll die like the rest, ah
You mess with the best, ah
Then you'll die like the rest, ah
You mess with the best, ah
Then you'll die like the rest, ah
You mess with the best, ah
Then you'll die, then you'll die like the rest, ah

Sometimes I think about you
Sometimes I think about you, oh
Sometimes I think about you
Sometimes I think about you, oh
