Turn the page the chapters done
The boy has a life yet still to win
Kill the lightswitch it is off to bed
Best friend ran away and left him there
A lack of hope full of despair
Tell the girl this boy is to young to be gold
A fresh new fetish to calm the flames
He grew up living childish games
Left maturity behind, he is almost dead
Growing older was always though
He never learned how to know enough
A shot to the head, he will never learn at all
Bruised and broken, bleeding now
I told you this all would happen somehow
You lost the bet, beauty pay up
Give me sex and childish things
I want jewelry and diamond rings
A wife to adore, where did she go?
Deal those drugs now, your last chance
Make some money to pay the debt
The one that you owe, from that money you stole
Save me Father, I know not what to do
How can I undo this mess I get into?
If I wanted my childhood back, what would it cost?
I've got no money, got no friends
Got no more parents to make amends
No guidance left, I am out on the street
Call me a begger, I am no safe bet
I cannot be a choser, I'll take what I get
A coat for my back, newspaper sheets, kill me now
There must be shelter, a home for me
A place to be happy, a place to be free
To vote for this country, I'd give anything
I wanted a life worth more than words
I wanted something more useful than absurbt
I needed some help, it all ran away
I think back to how it was there way back when
I didn't give a fuck who I was back then
I should have tried harder, I needed a job
Some modevation to step it up
Make the team, never learn enough
Go to college, get and education for me
To want to change what you can't now
Feels so helpless and heartless somehow
I want to be smart, I want something I didn't have
A career in making plans
Helping people, holding hands
I lost it all now, I just want it back
