Club 27 Lyrics

They lived their lives under bright lights

They played their songs so many nights

They sang of love of loss of fear

Their demons have been always near

In shadows whispers start to grow

A story that we all now know

Welcome to the legend's club

Where you stay young and not grow up

Where at the age of twenty-seven

You choose to go to hell or heaven

Hendrix played till his strings would snap

Janis cried till her voice would crack

Morrison danced with shadows' sway

In crowded rooms they lost their way

A voice that echoes through the years

A song that draws out all our tears

Welcome to the legend's club

Where you stay young and not grow up

Where at the age of twenty-seven

You choose to go to hell or heaven

Cobain screamed out against the night

Winehouse sang till the morning light

They gave their souls to every stage

Colored birds in a golden cage

Welcome to the legend's club

Where you stay young and not grow up

Where at the age of twenty-seven

You choose to go to hell or heaven

We did not want to hear their cry

We did not want to see them die

We closed our eyes let out a sigh

Before they said their last goodbye

Their shadows fade but not their fame

Their life is gone but songs remain

In every chord in every line

They live on past the end of time

A legacy in pain and fame

In every note we hear their name

Welcome to the legend's club

Where you stay young and not grow up

Where at the age of twenty-seven

You choose to go to hell or heaven

Age twenty-seven is a date

It's not too soon and not too late

It's not any exit not a gate

Club twenty-seven is a fate
