The Past Songtext

von NeverShoutNever!

I sing songs about the past
And how I was raised
And I was thrown out on my ass
'cause I didn't care
About going to school

And I saw the look in her eyes
My mother nearly cried when
I told her that I wanted to go
Just to prove them wrong

I've been smoking cigarettes
Since I was only fourteen
Just to find an escape
From this town that was so mean to me

I sing songs about the friends
The way we grew up
And all the loose ends we used to love
'cause I didn't give a damn

And I saw the look
In my brothers eyes
When I told him I was leaving
He couldn't help but despise me
He wanted out his whole life

I've been smoking the green
Since I was nearly sixteen
Just to find an escape
From this town that was
So mean to me

And I sing songs about the past.
