Dying With My Boots On

from Going for the Gold by Henry Bemis is a Superhero

lyrics

i've made my wish.
and i'm making it over again.
i've made my wish.
and i've decided i'm not keeping it.

i'm not spending my life on a pipe dream.
i'm not spending my life on a broken kind it seems
of a girl who just wants to cut herself

and i've already forgotten why i started talking to you
and to you

i'm sorry. i don't love you anymore.
i'm so sorry.

and i can't believe i wanna break up with you for a pipe dream
for a girl i probably won't ever meet.
and you love me so much.
and it hurts to let you go.

and i suppose it's like what my father once said,
"find your self a girl who won't get out of your head
and follow her to the break of dawn or til you
fall in the line of war."

"but for god's sake, die with your boots on."
