Rite Of Spring

I was locked all day in the summer heat
In a small brown house in suburban streets
A skateboard and my shit guitar
I dream all day that they would get me far
My dad would ask me about my grades
The asshole sports that I never played
And then id ask about the girls he'd date
Behind our backs when mum was staying up late
It was then when I turned 16
Got kicked out of school
And so it seemed that things were closing in and ready to blow
My dad moved out about that year or so
It took an hour to start a punk rock band
To offset my fucked up family land
And as I held my mum would start to cry
I swore ourselves a better life
If I had a chance for another try
I wouldn't change a thing
It's made me all who I am inside
And if I could thank god that I am here and that I am alive
And everyday I wake I tell myself a little harmless lie
The whole wide world is mine
The summers gone, the years have passed
My friends have changed, a few did last
The smallest dreams got pushed aside
the largest ones that changed my life
And all I've wished for has come to pass
From rock and roll to love and cash
Its all success if its what you need
Do what you like and do it honestly
If I had a chance for another try
I wouldn't change a thing
It's made me all who I am inside
And if I could thank god that I am here and that I am alive
And everyday I wake I tell myself a little harmless lie
The whole wide world is mine
He oh yo yo yo
He oh yo yo yo
He oh yo yo yo
He oh yo yo yo
He oh yo yo yo
He oh yo yo yo
He oh yo yo yo
He oh yo yo yo
If I had a chance for another try
I wouldn't change a thing
It's made me all who I am inside
And if I could thank god that I am here and that I am alive
And everyday I wake I tell myself a little harmless lie
The whole wide world is mine
