The Young Crazed Peeling
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Are you ready to be liberated
On this sad side city street
Well the birds have been freed from their cages
I got freedom and my youth
My name is Brody, I'm from Melbourne
Fitzroy Melbourne, fitzroy Melbourne
I grew up on bell st. Then on bennett st.
My mum kicked out my dad for battery
Found a way, she found a way
She found a way out of spiritual penury
Working single mother in an urban struggle
Blames herself now, 'cause I grew up troubled
It hit me, I got everything I need
My one heart felt too much from the start
I've seen people come and go
Living large and living low
You can build up your walls sitting on death row
Let the curtain fall on your murdered soul
You can wash it all down, swallow your story
Get smacked off your head, go down in drumroll glory
You won't solve it, committing self inflicted crime
Go on pull the trigger this will be the last time
It hit me, I got everything I need
I speak of the truth, the truth of the heart
Like a desperate thirst in a raging drought
Hey youth, time flies by
Theres an everlasting battle for eternal life
I love a man from California
He's the prettiest thing we got the same disorder
The way you feel it's ok
Is never gonna change anyway
It hit me, I got everyone I need
Are you ready to be liberated
On this sad side city street
Well the birds have been freed from their cages
I got freedom and my youth
Yeah, I got freedom and my youth
