In 1999 I was first learning to sinCranked up and hit the roadTo grind some gears againBreak neck and recklessI had a trail to blaze aheadNo counting cost or who I might have left for deadWent looking for a river of goldWhen my hometown was catching on fireLeft everyone I love in the smokeWhile I got lost becoming a liarNow I'm upsteamI'm getting tiredAnd all those birthdays whenI just forgot to callHeads were rollingI was a poster on the wallI'm not sure what it wasHanging around my neckI'm certain it had plansTo take what it could getWent searching for the hollywood soundAnd my old friends were cursing my nameI thought if I could burn out the sun SongtexteThen everyone would be with me in the shadeWrong as I was I wouldn't changeAnd all those birthdays whenI just forgot to callI'm sitting on a mountain of guiltThat I finally started chipping awayHere hoping you could try to absolveAll the years that I was playing the gameI think that I'm turning homeward againAnd I'm praying you will open the gatesWill you let me inLet me stay Aus Songtexte Mania
