rock + roll Lyrics

EDEN - rock + roll

[Verse 1]

So tell me this is who you are

They tell me I've got something more

And oh, you could be loved

But I don't want the lights to find me when I'm dark and lost

But never on my own

[Chorus]

'Cause I just wanna swing like Sinatra

Singing like I can't stop

'Cause I could never rock like a Rolling Stone

I just wanna live like the ones before, yeah

And maybe I could play guitar like Hendrix

Or save the world or end it

And then maybe they'll remember me when I'm gone

That's all I could ever want

That's all I want

[Verse 2]

So I got ten minutes to be all or nothing to

Whoever wants to hear

And I got ten weeks of talking bullshit on repeat 'till I'm burnt out and disappear

But I owe you nothing

And I own my luck

Oh, they said you'll never be alone again

But I don't think you understand me or what I fear

But you could be loved

But I don't wanna lie to tell myself

I'm more than all the mistakes I've outrun

[Verse 3]

'Cause I'm only here for a minute

And I don't care what you say 'cause I know

You're only here cause I'm winning

But I can be my own kind of rock and roll

I don't really care if you say you don't fuck with me

And I can say what the fuck I want 'cause it's down to me

And I got love for you even if you were doubting me

Like, oh my God, I just can't stop

[Chorus]

'Cause I just wanna sing like Sinatra

With ethanol my soundtrack

'Cause I could never rock like a Rolling Stone

I wonder how it feels to burn out young, yeah

'Cause I just wanna die before my heart fails

From heartbreak or cocktails and

Then maybe you'll cry once you know I'm gone

That's all I could ever want

Oh, that's all I want, yeah

[Bridge]

'Cause I ain't scared of livin'

(Does it get easier?)

(No...)

No, I ain't scared of livin'

(yes, it gets easier)

(Oh yeah?)

No, I ain't scared of livin'

[Outro]

'Cause it's all we've got

What are we breathin' for if we ain't living?

And I don't want your love

I just wanna feel like I'm still livin'

And if there is no god

I know the day I die, I lived through heaven

And that I gave it hell

And if it hurt, oh well

At least that's living

(The more you know who you are and what you want...)

That's all I want

(...the less you let things upset you)

That's all I want

I just don't know who I'm supposed to be

I tried being a writer but I hate what I write

And I tried taking pictures but they were so mediocre

You know, and every girl goes through a photography phase

You know, like horses, and taking dumb pictures of your feet

You'll figure that out - I'm not worried about you
