Livin' in the fast is easy

Till you run out of road

Friends will turn to strangers

When you're out of control

A slip of the tongue when

It's done, is often hard to

See it thru

So never let your words be lies

Or they'll come looking for you



It's a hard life to love



For the price of glory you left

And threw your fortunes away

Never really cared too much for

The job or the pay



You're standing in the rain with

No cover but you never complain

You're an angry young man face to

Face but your mirrors insane

It's a hard life to love



I'm simply refusing a part in your world

And I see how it burns

See how it burns

And you're simply denying the fact

That you're blind and I see no more

I see red - I only see red



Think of all the times I was

Hurting but you felt no pain

Think of all the lies you told me

Again and again

And still you see the truth

From those who continue to lie

And now you're seeking life

From those who are living to die

It's a hard life to love



I'm simply refusing a part in your world

And I see how it burns

See how it burns

And you're simply denying the fact

That you're blind and I see no more

I see red - I only see red



Livin' in the fast lane ain't easy

When you run out of road

Friends will turn to strangers

When you've nowhere to go

Don't give a damn when you're lost

Cause you'll die from it all

Laws were made to be broken

And you do it for the thrill of it all

It's a hard life to love

It's a hard life to love
