Lyrics
0:13Carry my load
0:15Like you carry my songs
0:17It's a long road
0:20And I'm a little star drunk
0:25Don't give me your roses
0:28Just carry me home
0:29When the spotlight grows cold
0:32And the applause don't mean much
0:35The mighty die young
0:37Glitter in their eyes
0:38Smoke in their lungs
0:41The mighty die young
0:43Feathers in their hair
0:45Dust on their tongue
0:47I wanna grow old
0:54I'm not mighty
0:55I've only just begun
0:57The mighty die young
1:01They say I'm too old
1:04For Hollywood's shine
1:06And maybe they're right
1:08I've got a wrinkle in my smile
1:09I wanna see it grow
1:13They say I'm too kind
1:16Maybe I'll keep that in mind
1:18I've been robbed of my dignity
1:21One too many times
1:24The mighty die young
1:26Glitter in their eyes
1:27Smoke in their lungs
1:30The mighty die young
1:32Feathers in their hair
1:33Dust on their tongue
1:36I wanna grow old
1:42I'm not mighty
1:44I've only just begun
1:45The mighty die young
Carry my load Like you carry my songs It's a long road And I'm a little star drunk Don't give me your roses Just carry me home When the spotlight grows cold And the applause don't mean much The mighty die young Glitter in their eyes Smoke in their lungs The mighty die young Feathers in their hair Dust on their tongue I wanna grow old I'm not mighty I've only just begun The mighty die young They say I'm too old For Hollywood's shine And maybe they're right I've got a wrinkle in my smile I wanna see it grow They say I'm too kind Maybe I'll keep that in mind I've been robbed of my dignity One too many times The mighty die young Glitter in their eyes Smoke in their lungs The mighty die young Feathers in their hair Dust on their tongue I wanna grow old I'm not mighty I've only just begun The mighty die young
