A Lesson for Kurt

Life is a pressure
Best faced alive
I've heard you'd rather
Just stay admired
Off you wander
Cursing in your fame
Infamy will only light your name

I want you alive
Not distant and idolized
You didn't try

Write off an excuse
For each and every crime
Least you bothered
To leave a note behind

What do you want from me?
From my life?
Like you'll ever do what
I tried

I want you alive
Not given to suicide
You didn't try
Hard enough to survive

Don't give up until you reach nirvana
Don't give up until you reach nirvana

What do you want from us,
From this life?
Just forget us
You know you're right
And...

Don't give up until you reach nirvana
Don't give up until you reach nirvana.
