Lyrics:
— 20
It was chapter one
Mother’s favorite son
calling home, let her know that I’m good, I can handle this
but I was just a kid
drove a piece of shit
when I moved in with two other guys I was working with
When we get off today
we’re gonna celebrate
go to sleep and repeat cause we all got bills to pay

I was 20
I just believed
big things gonna happen for me
Kind of funny
I’d rather dream
out there in the middle of the street

Quite an optimist
when I thought of this
I was telling myself it’ll all fall into place
When I get out of here
I’ll grab a big career
get a house, a garage and a yard where the kids can play
but like a tidal wave
on a Crystal Lake
couldn’t watch couldn’t run so I learned how the heart can break
No feeling bad for me
This ain’t a tragedy
cause it is what it is what it was wasn’t meant to be

I was 20
I just believed
big things gonna happen for me
Kind of funny
I’d rather dream
out there in the middle of the street

I was 20
I was something else
I was someone else
I was 20
I was 20

I was something else
I was someone else
I was something else

I was 20
I just believed
big things gonna happen for me
Kind of funny
I’d rather dream
out there in the middle of the street

I was 20
I was something else
I was someone else
I was 20
I was 20
