Wishing It Away

Live fast die young, the words of a fool it seems

Hell bent getting there, seeing nothing on the way

Where are you now, when all eyes would be on you

Dumbstruck, disappeared, leaving everything to do

You were wishing it away

Sail up the stream travel so far

But always get out of the boat

Sail up the stream travel far

But always leave the boat

Here in my hands; all that I could wish for

Timebomed, stick around see it all go up in smoke

With these very hands, I'll pull it all apart

I know in the end it'll sound like some sad joke

'cos I'll be wishing it away

Wishing it away

Wishing it away

Nothing is sacred, not life nor hapiness

Least of all is the world that we live in unless we make it pay

We're wishing it away
