Shorter, faster, louder stronger.
Pushing harder and lasting longer.
If I burn too bright, I might burn away.
And if I burn out, I burn out.
I'm a maniac, understand me?
Now that the sun is down, I'll be around.
There's no dialtone on my telephone,
But I dial anyway.
I've grown older now, waiting, wondering how
To get my messages to play.
Shorter, faster, louder stronger.
Pushing harder and lasting longer.
If I burn too bright, I might burn away.
And if I burn out, I burn out.
I'm a maniac, understand me?
Now that the sun is down, I'll be around.
When my fire is strong, I'll burn all night long
And there's always more to say.
Ad infinitum, if not for the sun
Overshadowing my flame.
I'm a manic, I'm a maniac.

Once, twice. I outsmarted bad luck on your good advice.
Plan B is usually stronger than plans A or C.
True love, true crime. It's true that the difference is hard to define.
Head strong--give back what you're given and carry it on.
Carry on, carry on, carry on, carry on.
Reasons: I've heard all the reasons, but I'm still not satisfied.
I guess that makes me unreasonable.
Amor fati. Stay hungry, stay honest, stay wicked, stay free.
Outlast--the boredom brigade moves surprisingly fast.
Close call. When you're furthest away we're the closest of all.
Abridged, no doubt. So we carry it on until we know what the story is about.
Carry on, carry on, carry on, carry on.
Reasons: I've heard all the reasons, but I'm still not satisfied.
I guess that makes me unreasonable.

Don't give me a heartattack, steal and sell this heart of gold.
Baby, baby, please don't slay me. Let's grow old at least to 80.
You can have my treasure trove in exchange for your sweet love.
I don't have no ill intentions, nor a vice I failed to mention.
What I have isn't what I own.
I live interest-free on a carnal lone.
All I need is a skeleton
And I see your closet is full of them.
Don't give me a heartattack, steal and sell this heart of gold.
Baby, baby, please don't slay me. Let's grow old at least to 80.
You can have my treasure trove in exchange for your sweet love.
I don't have no ill intentions, nor a vice I failed to mention.
Galavanting through parts unknown
To disarm the keepers of skin and bone.
Meet me down in the boarderland--
I'm your well-equiped desert island man.
Don't give me a heartattack, steal and sell this heart of gold.
Baby, baby, please don't slay me. Let's grow old at least to 80.
You can have my treasure trove in exchange for your sweet love.
I don't have no ill intentions, nor a vice I failed to mention.
It's as good as gold, baby. Tête-à-tête.
I can see you now like I won't forget.
Tell me now in a wisper tone
All the things I've missed of your skin and bone.
