lyrics -

Countin' them bands, on my way to the top, 'til we fallin' over

[Chorus]I don't really care if you cry
On the real you should've never lied
Should've saw the way she looked me in my eyes

She said, "Baby, I am not afraid to die"
Push me to the edge
All my friends are dead
Push me to the edge
All my friends are dead
Push me to the edge
All my friends are dead
Push me to the edge
