18 years old and you know it all
feeling like your back's up against the wall
nobody ever f*cking listens to you
time to pack your bags, do what you've gotta do
catch the first train out of this town
f*ck off to all those who put you down
no money in your pocket, but that's all right
out on your own in the city, the city tonight...
[Chorus: (x2)]
this is my life
i've always listened to you
never seemed to get the message through
just to bad that you never could see
now im gonna live my life just for me
met up with the wrong kids in the town
out all night, just hangin' around
mom and dad a thousand miles away
drunk and high all night and day
got busted one night for selling a fix
big price to pay for getting your kicks
now you don't even know who you are
and what you once knew
seems oh so far...
