Twelve years old when the preacher man said to me
Don't get caught up in everyone else's dreams, everyone else's dreams
Wasn't long till those bright lights blinded me
Smell of cheap success changed what I believe
Ohh what do I believe
Cause I’ve been singing someone else's song
I want to let go of these games I’ve played far too long
What happened to that bright eyed kid
Burning out the sun, gotta get back
Back to where I started from
They all say times are changing everyday
Better fall into line or you'll just fade away
Ohh time keeps ticking away
Cause I’ve been singing someone else's song
I want to let go of these games I’ve played far too long
Oh what happened to that bright eyed kid
Burning out the sun
Live in every moment, just take it on the run
Gotta get back, back to where I started from
Oh back to where I started from
Cause I’ve been singing someone else's song
I want to let go of these games I’ve played far too long oh
Cause I’ve been singing, singing someone else's song
I want to let go of these games I’ve played far too long
Oh what happened to that bright eyed kid
Burning out the sun
Live in every moment, just take it on the run
Gotta get back, back to where I started from
