The Reckless And The Brave

1. Long live the reckless and the brave
I don't think I want to be saved
My song has not been sung
So long live us.

Looking out at a town called Suburbia
Everybody's just fighting to fit in
Little rats running mazes, having babies
It's a vicious little world that we live in.

Looking back at a life on the other side
I realize that I didn't fit in
Didn't hate it, but I didn't quite relate it
To my precious little world.

[Chorus:]
So long live the reckless and the brave
I don't think I want to be saved
My song has not been sung.

And long live the fast times, so come what may.
I don't think I'll ever be saved
Our song has not been sung
Long live us.

2. Breaking out of a town called Suburbia
I remember everybody always saying:
"Little brat must be crazy, never make it, in our vicious little world."
Still I'm leaving.

Got a van, got a chance, got my dignity
Got a dream, got a spark, got somewhere to be
Take a breath, say goodbye
To their precious little world.

[Chorus: X2]

[Bridge:]
And long live the fast times, so come what may.
I don't think I'll ever be saved, I know
Our song has not been sung
Long live us
Long live us.
