[Jay Z]
Yeah, what you critics said would never happen
We dedicate this album to anybody people said couldn't make it
To the fans that held us down till everybody came around
Welcome
It's here

Last summer we took threes across the board
But by fall we were a cover story, "now in stores"
Make us poster boys for your scene
But we are not making an acceptance speech
I found the safest place to keep all our old mistakes
Every dot-com's refreshing for a journal update

So long live the car-crash hearts
Cry on the couch so all the poets come to life
Fix me in forty-five

So long live the car crash hearts
Cry on the couch so all the poets come to life
Fix me in forty-five

I can take your problems away with a nod and a wave
Of my hand 'cause that's just the kind of boy that I am
The only thing I haven't done yet is die
And it's me and my plus-one at the afterlife
Crowds are won and lost and won again
But our hearts beat for the die-hards

So long live the car-crash hearts
Cry on the couch so all the poets come to life
Fix me in forty-five

So long live the car-crash hearts
Cry on the couch so all the poets come to life
Fix me in forty-five

Long live the car crash hearts
(Long live the car crash hearts)
Long live the car crash hearts
(Long live the car crash hearts)

Long live the car crash hearts
Cry on the couch so all the poets come to life
And fix me in forty-five
