[Verse 1]
I remember when we used to all play spin the bottle
Now it's fall in love with someone, then get your heart broke
Yeah, I miss the days where there was no plan tomorrow
Now the week days are work and weekends are just finding trends to follow
It's so shallow
[Pre-Chorus]
But what if I just stopped givin'? Ah
What if I live it up?
Day drinking, being ride or die
Give me time
What if I just stopped feeling sad?
Gave it everything I had
Never say the right thing
But sometimes right is wrong
[Chorus]
I don't care what they say
I do what I want, call me crazy, yeah
And I know that it will stop someday
But I wanna live young till I'm pushin' up daisies
Buildin' it up is self made
Every day, the world changes, yeah
Don't you worry 'bout me
I wanna live young till I'm pushin' up daisies
[Post-Chorus]
Pushin' up daisies
Pushin' up daisies
[Verse 2]
I remember when we used to stay up late till all hours
Now we're so stressed out, it's a wonder how all of our hair don't fall out
Yeah, I miss those times, back seat of the car, having the window rolled down (Oh)
Now we're in a car, headed to a job we don't even want, thinking we should stop
I wanna be a queen, not a worker bee, but that's me
[Pre-Chorus]
So what if I just stopped givin'? Ah
What if I live it up?
Day drinking, being ride or die
Give me time
What if I just stopped feeling sad?
Gave it everything I had
Never say the right thing
But sometimes right is wrong
[Chorus]
I don't care what they say
I do what I want, call me crazy, yeah
And I know it will stop someday
But I wanna live young till I'm pushin' up daisies
Buildin' it up is self made
Every day, the world changes, yeah
Don't you worry 'bout me
I wanna live young till I'm pushin' up daisies
[Post-Chorus]
Pushin' up daisies
Pushin' up daisies
[Bridge]
In my mind I'm on fire
Tryna touch the skyline
Cover up the wounds inside
I feel like this could be the moment
When I become unbroken
But I will fight the good fight
Till I'm pushin' up daisies
[Outro]
Oh, woah
Pushin' up daisies (Oh yeah)
Pushin' up daisies (Yeah)
Pushin' up daisies (Pushin' up daisies)
I wanna live young till I'm pushin' up daisies

This is an Ed Sheeran song so, again, it’s got that amazing, banging pop chorus. I love the concept of just wanting to live your best life until you’re dead. It’s so uplifting, and I love the bridge, it’s just soaring. Good old Ed Sheeran swooped in with another banger!
