When It Dies – The Get Up Kids

As it sharpens and it’s shimmering
Every cut, a song
All the inner voices whispering
Say I’ve done it wrong

I got mine to say, “Let it go when it dies.”

As the pressure starts to escalate
Be your father found
Lack the patience when I’m desperate
Never make a sound

I got mine to say, “Let it go when it dies.”
You don’t have a thing less

A little magic, little mystery
Never did no harm
I ain’t talking if you twisted me
You could break my arm

I got mine to say, “Let it go when it dies.”
You don’t have
I got through a ways I can tell when it dies
I know how to take it

Better days, you bet on these
The company that you keep
[Repeat until end]
