Green Day
Carpe Diem
[Verse 1]
Breaking in a sweat like a bomb threat
Is your silhouette fading out?
Nothing left to lose, detonate the fuse
Another breaking news blowout
Ain't it beautiful? So unusual
Life's a gas and it's running out
Living a cliché, gonna seize the day
Bottle rockets that celebrate, celebrate, celebrate

[Chorus]
Carpe Diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask a reason, and no reply
Are we all too young to die?

[Refrain]
Making a living, making a killing
What's worth forgiving, alright?

[Verse 2]
A blink of an eye, barely scraping by
Dominated by passersbys
Feeling out of luck when the traffic's stuck
And you're feeling so left behind
Getting off a binge, get a second wind
Another promise to make a change
Got a broken wing, hear the angels sing
When the signal is out of range, ain't it strange, ain't it strange?
[Chorus]
Carpe Diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask a reason, and no reply
Are we all too young to die?

[Refrain]
Making a living, making a killing
What's worth forgiving, alright?

[Guitar Solo]

[Refrain]
Making a living, making a killing
What's worth forgiving, alright?

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
Carpe Diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask a reason, and no reply
Are we all too young to die?
Carpe Diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask a reason, and no reply
Are we all too young to die?
