To live and let go

Rush of the past
I quietly crash
And the tables turn
You're beautiful strange
Defiantly brash
Be careful now
Kid you're a cut above
Always just a cut above the rest

If there's something left
To be learned
Then my time is running
Why should I waste it all
Wasted on you
I shouldn't be trusted
To live and let go
When the last of my cities
Have burned
Then what's left in nothing
Why did I waste it all
Wasted on you
I couldn't be trusted
To live and let go

Fill in the blanks
Pencil on paper
Disposable
Throw away lines
Intentional but unbelievable
Kid you're a cut above
Always just a cut above the rest

If there's something left
To be learned
Then my time is running
Why should I waste it all
Wasted on you
I shouldn't be trusted
To live and let go
When the last of my cities
Have burned
Then what's left in nothing
Why did I waste it all
Wasted on you
I couldn't be trusted
To live and let go

Shaken and tried
Fade and resign
As the tables turn
Let slip away
The renegade life
You've been dreaming of
Kid you're a cut above
Always just a cut above the rest

If there's something left
To be learned
Then my time is running
Why should I waste it all
Wasted on you
I shouldn't be trusted
To live and let go
When the last of my cities
Have burned
Then what's left in nothing
Why did I waste it all
Wasted on you
I couldn't be trusted
To live and let go
