i can't be silver for long
i rust too quickly
oxidation eating me from within
but isn't it worth the degradation
for a few moments sparkling
i live to be alive
so fuck you jesus
you never did anything for me
when i was sick and dead and guilty
where the hell were you?
i never was golden
no one really is
just pyrite in the sand
waiting for a hand
to make us care
but why should we care at all?
i just live to be alive
so fuck you jesus
you wish you could get ahold of me now
so you could squeeze til i feel safe
until my next sin
we can make it on our own
just live and be alive...
