adam's song
I took my time, I hurried up
I never conquered, rarely came
The world was wide, too late to try
I never thought I'd die alone
You'll close it off, board it up
I never conquered, rarely came
The world is wide, the time goes by
I never conquered, rarely came
The world was wide, the time goes by
I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest who'd have known?
I trace the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
The choice was mine I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone
Sixteen just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait till I got home
To pass the time in my room alone
Another six months I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never step foot in my room again
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault
Sixteen just held such better days
Days when I can still feel alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait till I got home
To pass the time in my room alone
Tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I could still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside
The tour is over, I'd survived
And I can't wait till I get home
To pass the time in my room alone.
