Lyrics Bangarang - Rotting Out

Bangarang

I’m stuck in this city just like old man Bukowski
And I’m watching the world move on without me
I’m still fifteen in the city of shame
And society’s chains are still calling my name
So can you blame me for finding peace on the road
When my whole life I was afraid to come home?
I was forced to be a pirate, so I break things and make noise
Do what it takes to forever be a lost boy
Give me the moment I’ve been searching for
Give me the story that I love
Give me the ending that pulls every nerve
Make me the kid that conquers the world
I never thought I’d make it past twenty-four
«Act your age.»
I don’t know what that means anymore
This is still my movie, but before the credits roll
I want that epic ending that leaves you speechless when the curtains close
Be the boys who jumped the fence
Be the ones smiling when driving off the cliff
Be the last kind standing, honored to face his death
I want to be the moment you won’t forget
Live like I’m stuck in a movie screen
Smile like my first kiss from a girl
I’m an old man too young to neglect these scenes
So make me the boy that conquers the world
