Going Out Swinging Lyrics

Born with perfect vision

Raised to make bad decisions

My time of indecision

When New Order was Joy Division

I was ready to conquer the world

Then I blinked, am I too old?

Cut my teeth on chronic liars

Lived on burning desires

I was ready to conquer the world

Then I blinked, am I too old?

My clouds have no silver lining

But my stars are still aligning

I'm going out swinging

Fatigued and my ears ringing

With all due respect

I'm down but not out yet

I see you're coming in for the kill

But I'm strong and haven't lost my will

Not the end it's a new beginning

But if I'm going out

I'm swinging

Going out swinging

Drifted apart over time

Once partners in every crime

Now claim I'm past my prime

There are mountains left to climb

I'm ready to conquer the world

I know I'm not too old

Reflecting on life cycles

with rose colored bifocals

I'm ready to conquer the world

I know I'm not too old

My clouds have no silver lining

But my stars are still aligning

I'm going out swinging

Fatigued and my ears ringing

With all due respect

I'm down but not out yet

I see you're coming in for the kill

But I'm strong and haven't lost my will

Not the end it's a new beginning

But if I'm going out

I'm swinging

Going out swinging

I'm going out swinging

I'm going out swinging

I'm going out swinging

I'm going out swinging

Found cracks in the pillars

Can't die with spirit killers

Closure and parting gestures

Results from desperate measures

I'm staying.
