lyrics

Where to begin
Long ago before I was a man
Innocence it was my friend
When I was young
It was so much simpler before
I tasted love I tasted life upon my tongue
And I would never be the same
I said here I go
Out to find myself
But I don’t know the way
I’ll carved the path I’ll make it straight today

And so I left
Left my home to run off to the world unknown
To wreck my mind and wrack my bones
To make mistakes
To learn to make a living on my own
To breathe, to find a little piece of me
To shine, well the sun was never a friend of mine
Well here I go
Another dog and pony show
For all to see
That I’m learning to start living with me

I’ve never been so perfect
But I’ve learned to accept
That I’ll never be everything they want me to be
And I have fallen, but I cannot be broken

Well here I go
I got a few deep burns by now
I know my way
I found it through my own mistakes
And I forgot and forgave all the enemies I’ve made
I guess this is growing up

As I got old
I grew a little wiser
I settled down, but I’m still a little fucked now
But I accept
that things will never be as good as gold and sand
or cocaine in my hands
No it’s not for me, I’ll never win the lottery
Well here I go
I made it work I made it all my own
Belief is something that I found in me
I know the way
I carved the path I made it straight today
