I want the chip off the old block
I want a girl, who I can talk to
Stumblin' through your neighborhood
Defacing walls just like I should

Ooh, I wanted to be you
Dirty like the skies
You live in space
Your life's a waste like mine

So let's just stop before we die
I know you don't care at all, ooh
But what if right before the end we quit now?
Why don't we just stop before we die?

We saw our names in the lights
Chasin' dragons through echo park
Raisin' hell on a quiet afternoon
Sandbox heroes, we lonely fools

Ooh, I wanted to be you
Take that and put your lips like mine
'Cause here in space
We're wastin' all our time

So let's just stop before we die
I know you don't care at all, ooh
But what if right before the end we quit now?
Die or tell the truth and don't you lie
And tell the truth before we die

Always needed love
All I needed was love, was love
And I always needed you
All I needed was you, was you
Was you, it's you, it's you

Ooh, I wanted to be you
Dirty like the skies
You live in space
Your life's a waste like mine

So let's just stop before we die
I know you don't care at all, ooh
But what if right before the end we quit?
Let's try and what if they're right

And it's darkest before the light
Come on tell me your truth
'Cause you see I told you're mine
Or let's just stop before we die

Before we die
Before we die
Before we die
Before we die
