Stories Of A Different Kind

You're 21 and jaded

While I’m just trying to survive but you still

See me smiling

You're arrogant like you've made it

Acting like the living dead

But I'm the one who’s alive instead

Fires, fighting, and long wasted nights have

Become the moments that I live for

Stories of a different kind

You do it for money while I do it for a good time

And you can bet when it ends

I’ll be full of debt but I'll have no regret

Rocket shooting you straight to the top

And I’m afraid you miss the point

And you need some reminding

You’re no pioneer, your way was paved

A decade ago I was in your shoes

But never had your attitude

I’ve been around the world a thousand times

Had people shouting out my name

To later on forget all the words they sang

And it never felt the same

You'll be emptied files in a trash can

And I’ll be a good find in a used bin
