| I’m half awake at twelve
|
| I close these eyes again
|
| I’m half dressed at seventeen
|
| And I still keep them closed
|
| I felt half-dead by the time I turned twenty-one
|
| I don’t feel alive at the age of twenty-two
|
| I might feel okay at twenty three
|
| I got overwhelmed like an empty shell
|
| That’s waiting to get fired again
|
| I’m chasing dreams in the town where I grew up
|
| I play with grenades in these dirty streets
|
| A hundred drinks, a hundred smokes, a hundred perfect times
|
| I got a bomb for reality
|
| Can anyone ever count on me?
|
| I tried to get it right on many sleepless nights
|
| It’s an itch I cannot scratch
|
| It seems I wasted the last match |
