I'm not afraid of getting older I'm one less day from dying young I see the light go past my shoulder I'm one less day from dying young I see my life Like a train with a one-way track I've made mistakes And I couldn't take 'em back And I've been runnin' 'round in circles 'Til I'm dizzy, I can't lie But every night I go to sleep's A day that I survive I'm not afraid of getting older I'm one less day from dying young I see the light go past my shoulder I'm one less day from dying young And I've seen my friends Fall away before their time And I've been afraid That I may follow in their light So I drink and love and whisper All the things I know are right Someday, I will leave this world But maybe not tonight I'm not afraid of getting older I'm one less day from dying young I see the light go past my shoulder I'm one less day from dying young I'm one less day from dying young (yeah!) All my life I have been wandering Burning up my candle like my time just won't end And I'll keep burning 'til there's nothing left Praying that tomorrow I can do it all again And if I get tomorrow, I will do it all again I'm not afraid of getting older I'm one less day from dying young And I see the light go past my shoulder I'm one less day from dying young I'm not afraid of getting older I'm one less day from dying young I see the light go past my shoulder I'm one less day from dying young (From dying young!) I'm one less day from dying young (From dying young!) Hey! (I'm one less day from dying young) (I'm one less day from dying young) (I'm one less day from dying young)
