lyrics

I know
I will always feel
Like a ten year old boy
That lost his way

In a big time city
Big cars and trucks
And a big ol' street
That I have to cross

Wait, this time
I'll give up the ghost, maybe
If growing up is easy
then living must be seeing
What life is fot
It's the question, not the answer
What life is for
You ain't living, you ain't dancing
x2

This time around maybe we'll
Stop ourselves from making fools
Everyone else and I take
Comfort in the thought of losing
Myself again
Where the wild ones roam and the lions call
So Something isn't right
Or maybe that's how we're supposed to live
x2

Lose myself again
Where the wild ones roam and the lions call
So Something isn't right
Or maybe that's how we're supposed to live

I know
I will always feel
Like a ten year old boy
That lost his way
