I grewAm up in the 90's atC least that's Gwhat I trieCd
Clooking for Gways to Ambe satisfGied
AmI went to San CDiego toG try out myC luck
Ccame back 12 months Glater and aAmgain I was stuckG
FI felt like a Cgoldfish Gstuck in a bCowl
I was Fwaiting for Csomething that GI could conFtrol
Amafter 20C00 no longGer a kiCd
Cthe world didn't Gend but Amsomething else dGid
Amwhen my father takesC off I'm alreaGdy 1C9
Che wasn't asG happy as IAm thought he sGeemed
if Fthis is my Cscreenplay I Gdon't like my Crole
Fthese are the Cthings that you jusGt can't cFontrol
although I feel a lot older I'm just 23
if you're looking for answers don't come to me
instead of a future I've got a guitar
but dreaming out loud won't get me far
still I feel I'm ready for rock'n roll
there might be something that I can control
by the time I hit 30 I'll have enough
of being a twentysomething in love
my friends will all be married or they will be gone
me, I'll still be wondering what's going on
if that's what it takes then I'll sell my soul
as long as there's something that I can control
one day I'll wake up and I'll be 38
doing the things I used to hate
the trick to forget the bigger picture is when
you look at everything in close-up as often as you can
our revolution is covered in mold
there's only so much you can control
this is no anthem because anthems are proud
and pride isn't something that this is about
I shouldn't care shouldn't care
but I do and that's sometimes too hard to bear
still walking the same road with my shoes full of holes
just waiting for something that we can control
if I ever reach 50 or 65
too early to tell if I'll still be alive
we were born in the 80's and now we are here
my generation's dream will disappear
I'm at a graveyard passing the rows
a silent surrender we'll never get close
this is my story you swallowed it whole
about us feeling the need to be in control
