Keep It For The History Books

Everybodies got their secrets, everyones been told lies
Everyone grows old, because time does fly
Some of us live on forever in the memories of some
But some of us once we die, our lives are done

We don't live forever, we have to live in a rush
So much to be done, so much to be said
So many different people to make amends
How long you live all depends on,

How much you smile
How much you laugh
Whether or not you live in denial

We don't live forever, so we miswell make it last
Party forever, don't live in the past
Learn to let go, but never forget

Because without learning how far can you get?
Never knowing who you are
Or not to play with matches

Without knowing who you are
You won't ever get very far
And with playing with matches
You'll always get burned,
How would you know?

Everybody has their secrets, everyone's been told lies
We're all gonna grow old, because time sure flies
One of us will live on forever, in the memories of some
But most of us once we die, our memories are gone

I'm not living forever so why hold back?
I'm gonna go break the law once and never regret
Dance til' midnight and get in a bar fight
Then smile when I get caught

I've got all this down pat
Let's see who'll remember you
When they're all thinking about me

Don't play with those matches,
You'll only get burned
Always listen to other
They deserve to be heard.
