I Remember My First Beer

It' starts with a barge
Continues with a frown
His scars are a badge
This is his crown
Geezers like strobe lights and club fights.
Climb the ranks and reach new heights.
I know 5-0 sirens will sound,
You drag your knuckles because you can't get off the ground.
Who'll call his mother when her son cannot be found.
I know you've seen your name in lights but I'll watch them tear it down.
He spends all of his days
Moving mountains for gold
and he'll throw it all away
because there's stories to be told.
He dreams of the ocean, sea sick in his sleep.
The dance floors an ocean, the sinners swim deep.
I know you think you're the boy,
The gun in your hand it is not a toy,
Man across the street shouting "oi oi",
better think of a plan boy.
I know 5-0 sirens will sound,
You drag your knuckles because you can't get off the ground.
Who'll call his mother when her son cannot be found.
I know you've seen your name in lights but I'll watch them tear it down.

I know I know, I'm not man that they portray
Sail away and I'll decay - I promise I'm not okay
I'm ten pints deep and I'm messed up,
Why do I always act this way, a mucky little pup
I am the ground you walk on
tread carefully
a broken surface
but I'll cave in eventually
If passion is a currency
then soon they'd want to come and see
all the kids at shows who've had there lows
forget it all cause they found hope.
How many pints of Guinness does it take,
to make me ignore my complaints
None of them are warranted I've got a home and food in my fridge
Just because my ship has sunk before doesn't mean I won't make shore
I am the ground you walk on
tread carefully
a broken surface
but I'll cave in eventually
If passion is a currency
then soon they'd want to come and see
all the kids at shows who've had there lows
forget it all cause they found hope.
I'm a better captain
history won't keep me trapped in.

I find inspiration in the way kids ask questions
No sign of adult life congestion
We are not born with judgmental eyes just open hearts and worries cast aside
So tired of your little lines
There’s no road you need to go down, there’s a place for you in this town
You can’t tell me
How I should see everything
Can I measure your soul?
What unit would I use?
If I asked you to be honest
Would you refuse?
Words cause pain but you'll
See no bruise
We are the young
This is old news
As years pass,
Some have their vision blurred, with discrimination and thoughts absurd
Hand turn fist, no longer a pacifist
When on earth did I get to this?
You can’t tell me
How I should see everything
Can I measure your soul
What unit would I use?
If I asked you to be honest
Would you refuse?
Words cause pain but you'll
See no bruise
WE ARE THE YOUNG
THIS IS OLD NEWS
