Fireworks - Oh, Why Can't We Start Old & Get Younger? lyrics

First came the fountain First came the fountain of youth I'm sympathetic I went through what they went through Next came Pet Semetary Instead of worshiping the ground I'll keep my eyes off of it So I can turn my life around I want to make you feel like you just read A dedication written in the book that you found I'll keep holding on Even though nothing wants to hold back I'm getting over this rock I'm pinned under I don't need to feel the way I used to feel Birthdays and New Years Have just turned into deadlines And the worst part is There's only a month between mine When I speak people look at me Like I'm sending smoke signals The right words don't come easy anymore I'll keep holding on Even though nothing wants to hold back I'm getting over this rock I'm pinned under I don't need to feel the way I used to feel I've never seen vultures in the suburbs before No, no But throwing rocks at them won't stop me from dying slow No, no I'll keep holding on Even though nothing wants to hold back I'll keep holding on Even though nothing wants to hold back I'm getting over this rock I'm pinned under I don't need to feel the way I used to feel I'll keep holding on Even though nothing wants to hold back It's been quite a long time I'm getting over this rock I'm pinned under I don't need to feel the way I used to feel
