Billy
Lyricist:Brett W. Gurewitz
I can recall the warm youth of a summer day The sweetest lemonade, the darkest game arcade And Billy had a yearning in the corner of his mind It moved him secretly, it moved him powerfully
But prescience was lacking and the present was all And his aptitudes were carelessly wasted And challenging life with the abandon of a fool He squandered the hours of his day
Then darkness and disorder slapped him sharply in the face It hit him like a friend, struck somethin' deep within He couldn't break the chain of slow decay that seemed to drag him Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Just like a fatal tie toward the other side
And Billy was a lunatic just barkin' at the moon And his brain was totally wasted He then exchanged his friends for a needle and a spoon And he threw his future away
Bolt the door and throw away the key Your dim reflection is all that you can see So where is the justice when no one is at fault And a human life is tragically wasted? How fragile is the flame that burns within us all To light each passing day?
