lyrics
Intro
You'll find life stranger,
By the days you,
Walk on by.
Look out my window,
I can see them,
Living the lie.
Young as you'll be,
You'll still believe,
In love at first sight.
But days get older,
No one knows you,
Until the day,
YOU DIE!
Verse 1
I began my life,
Livin' in fright,
And never knowin' whats to happen next!
Felt my insides dying,
Seeing mamma crying,
And pappa was drug obsessed!
My hairstyle changed,
When they called me names,
No I was never made for school.
I was inside out, yeah,
Taken for granted,
Bu now, I'm no one's fool!
Chorus
When you feel low,
Don't you get alone -
Think about all the things you can do!
Don't you believe in,
The things on T.V -
Cause you know that there aint no truth!
You know he's wrong
And you don't belong.
There aint nothin' better you can do,
Just hang onto!
Hang on to you!
Verse two
You went to a friend,
To make it all end,
All he did was,
KICK YOU OUT!
Came to London Town,
Tried to settle down,
But now Your,
FREAKING OUT!
You've been ejected,
You're on the dole!
You're a victim of your own youth!
I was inside out, yeah!
Taken for granted,
But now I'm no one's fool!
(Chorus.)
Your generation matters too...Just hang onto you
