[Verse 1]
Jaded, faded
Self-medicated
I didn't know I was waiting for you, yeah, yeah
Broken, smoking
Till you came into focus
Sobered me up off of one hit of you

[Pre-Chorus]
Wasn't even trying to chase a high
I just didn't wanna feel so low, low, low
Know I'm gonna miss the crazy nights
But you made me wanna let it all go

[Chorus]
I was always gonna live fast, die young
Slow down when you came along, yeah
Burn bright, burn out
But now you make me wanna live forever
All that runnin', gonna give it up for you
Nothing ever get me high like you do
Some way, somehow
You and I, we're gonna live forever

[Post-Chorus]
Forever
You and I, we're gonna live forever

[Verse 2]
Wreckless, restless
I let it get so hectic
All the way up with my head in the sky, yeah, yeah
Too much, too gone
Too many, too fun
I don't know how but I got out alive

[Pre-Chorus]
Wasn't even trying to chase a high
I just didn't wanna feel so low, low, low
Know I'm gonna miss the crazy nights
But you made me wanna let it all go

[Chorus]
I was always gonna live fast, die young
Slow down when you came along, yeah
Burn bright, burn out
But now you make me wanna live forever
All that runnin', gonna give it up for you
Nothing ever get me high like you do
Some way, somehow
You and I, we're gonna live forever

[Post-Chorus]
Forever
You and I, we're gonna live forever
Some way, somehow
You and I, we're gonna live forever

[Bridge]
The party's over, let the good times roll
But we're still gonna lose control
Lose my mind, getting high on you
High on you
The party's over, let the good times roll
But we're still gonna lose control
Lose my mind, getting high on you

[Refrain]
You and I, we're gonna live forever
Forever and ever
You and I, we're gonna live forever
Forever and ever
You and I, we're gonna live forever
Forever and ever
You and I, we're gonna live forever
Forever and ever
You and I, we're gonna live forever

[Outro]
Live fast, die young
Slow down when you came along, yeah
Burn bright, burn out
But now you make me wanna live forever

Liam James Payne is an English R&B-pop singer-songwriter. He made his debut as a singer when he auditioned as a solo artist for the British television series The X Factor in 2008. He reauditioned as a solo artist in 2010, where he was put into a group along with four other contestants, to form the boy band that would later become known as One Direction.

Since joining One Direction, Payne, along with bandmates Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles and former bandmate Zayn Malik, have released five commercially successful albums, performed on four worldwide tours, and won multiple awards, including several BRIT Awards and four MTV Video Music Awards. He has worked independently under the monikers “Big Payno” and “Payno”, creating remixes for songs such as British pop singer Cheryl’s single “I Don’t Care”.

When One Direction first announced their hiatus in 2016, Liam said that he would stay in the music, but not go into a solo singing career. On May 10, 2017, Liam announced the release of his debut single “Strip That Down”. It became one of the biggest-selling debuts of all time, one of the most streamed songs of Summer 2017, making it the biggest selling song by any member from One Direction at the time.
