Bangarang - Rotting Out

I’m stuck in this city just like old man Bukowski

And I’m watching the world move on without me

I’m still fifteen in the city of shame

And society’s chains are still calling my name

So can you blame me for finding peace on the road

When my whole life I was afraid to come home?

I was forced to be a pirate, so I break things and make noise

Do what it takes to forever be a lost boy

Give me the moment I’ve been searching for

Give me the story that I love

Give me the ending that pulls every nerve

Make me the kid that conquers the world

I never thought I’d make it past twenty-four

«Act your age.»

I don’t know what that means anymore

This is still my movie, but before the credits roll

I want that epic ending that leaves you speechless when the curtains close

Be the boys who jumped the fence

Be the ones smiling when driving off the cliff

Be the last kind standing, honored to face his death

I want to be the moment you won’t forget

Live like I’m stuck in a movie screen

Smile like my first kiss from a girl

I’m an old man too young to neglect these scenes

So make me the boy that conquers the world
