Official Lyrics[]

Danny: Wild kids ride into the night
Full moon, we're drowning in the light
You don't need to beat me
You just need to keep up with me and Charlie Scene
J-Dog: Feet down and we're on the street now
Undead, wild and free now
Danny, get 'em, let 'em bleed out
J3T, just part the sea now
For us, it never ends
No time to pretend (No, no!)
So here we go again
Yeah, here we go again

Charlie Scene and Danny: I'd rather die than watch the sands slip by the hourglass
Johhny 3 Tears: (The hourglass)
Charlie Scene and Danny: The angels cry as the lost boys die 'cause they never last
But lost boys never die
Lost boys never die
Danny: (Lost boys never die)

Johhny 3 Tears: These streets look the same to me
It's me that's changed, memories
No last words, no eulogy
Haunted city, palm trees
Dust to dust, from dawn to dusk
J-Dog's got that LA up
Born and bred to rep the west
Till the sun sets and no one's left
Lost boys from a lost time
And a lullaby for a lost life
In the shadows now, no way out
We don't need the sun, we are the light
We're gonna live forever, no burial tonight
'Cause the lost boys, the lost boys, we don't die

Charlie Scene and Danny: I'd rather die than watch the sands slip by the hourglass
Johhny 3 Tears: (The hourglass)
Charlie Scene and Danny: The angels cry as the lost boys die 'cause they never last
But lost boys never die
Lost boys never die
But lost boys never die
Lost boys never die
Danny: (Lost boys never die)

Funny Man: You better say my fucking name
When you go to sleep, you see my face
You and me, we ain't the fucking same
You better say my fucking name
Funny Man and J-Dog: You better say my fucking name
When you go to sleep, you see my face
You and me, we ain't the fucking same
You better say my fucking name
J-Dog: You better say my fucking name
