Lyrics
Hit dirt Shake tree Split sky Part sea Strip smile Lose cool Bleed the day And break the rule Live, win Dare, fail Eat the dirt And bite the nail Then make me miss you Then make me miss you So wash your face away with dirt It don’t feel good until it hurts So take this world and shake it Come squeeze and suck the day Come carpe diem, baby Draw lead Piss wine Sink teeth All mine Stoke fire Break neck Suffer through this Cheat on death Hug the curve Lose the time Tear the map And shoot the sign Then make me miss you Then make me miss you So wash your face away with dirt It don’t feel good until it hurts So take this world and shake it Come squeeze and suck the day Come carpe diem, baby Live, win Dare, fail Eat dirt Bite the nail Strip smile Lose cool Bleed the day And break the rule Hug the curve Lose the time Tear the map And shoot the sign Then make me miss you Then make me miss you So wash your face away with dirt It don’t feel good until it hurts So take this world and shake it Come squeeze and suck the day Come make me miss you Come carpe diem, baby Come carpe diem, baby© 1997 Creeping Death Music (Global Music Rights)
