Born to Die Lyrics

We don't hope for making things better
All we want is to keep it together
Every day is a rainy day, no changing the weather
This kind of life has made our hearts as hard as leather

And all these tears are from the dust in our eyes
And all these years just keep on passing us by
And all this misery makes it hard to deny
We all know that we're just born to die
That's the way it goes when you're just born to die


I hear the voice of a whip-poor-will singing
She don't know all the comfort she's bringing
We all know the sound of when the truth is ringing
Yeah, it hurts your soul just like a bumblebee stinging

All these tears are from the dust in our eyes
And all these years just keep on passing us by
And all this misery makes it hard to deny
We all know that we're just born to die
That's the way it goes when you're just born to die

All these tears are from the dust in our eyes
And all these years just keep on passing us by
And all this misery makes it hard to deny
We all know that we're just born to die
'Cause we all know that we're just born to die
That's the way it goes when you're just born to die
