Heres To Life Lyrics

Heres To Life lyrics

how did camus really die that night?



were they right?



when he died was it really his time?



or was it suicide?



and holden caufield is a friend of mine



we go drinking from time to time



and i find: it gets harder every time







back off



but you're out on the street again



don't you stop



did you know you couldn't swim



back off



until you're out on the street again



i'm not going to play if there ain't no way i'll win







hemingway never seemed to mind the banality of a normal life



and i find it: gets harder every time



so he aimed the shotgun into the blue



placed his face in between the two and sighed: here's to life!







back off



but you're out on the street again



don't you stop



did you know you couldn't swim



back off



until you're out on the street again



i'm not going to play if there ain't no way i'll win







hey there salinger, what did you do?



just when the world was looking for you



to write anything that meant anything



you told us you were through



and it's been years since you passed away



but i see no plaque, and i see no grave



and i can't help believing that you wanted it that way



and vincent van gogh, why do you weep?



you were on your way to heaven but the road was steep



and who was there to break your fall?



we're guilty, one and all



and i don't know much, but i do know this:



with a golden heart comes a rebel fist



but i can't help agreeing with those that would not quit







and it makes me sick when i think of it



all my heroes could not live with this



and i hope you rest in peace because because with us you never did



and K.D.C. you were much too young



and you changed my life



but i draw the line at suicide



so here's to life!
