Two little friends on my windpipe And the pain in my chest tells me to drive I'm at the end of my half-life If I die, then it means I was alive Eyes cracked dry from the vision Split lips numb from the shine I've witnessed countless sacrifices given Now it's time for them to witness mine Born to kick the dust up Burn up fast and raise the odds I'll know the perfect moment when I'm shown it by the gods If I'm gonna die it's gonna be in my own way Oh, what a lovely day Oh, what a lovely day Face-first fall into failure And paradise has shut its doors for good I'm hiding like a child in a trailer When a firestorm warm goddess pops the hood She is all soft eyes and quiet whispers Tells me it's my destiny to live And I'm all edges, tumors, scars, and blisters But at least there's one thing I can give Born to kick the dust up Burn up fast and raise the odds I'll know the perfect moment when I'm shown it by the gods If I'm gonna die it's gonna be in my own way Oh, what a lovely day Oh, what a lovely day Oh, what a lovely day Oh, what a lovely day
