Full Scale - Sixteen Today lyrics

rate me

I wasn't born here sir, but yes I live here

Can you help me sir, I'm dying here

I come not for me, but for my brother

He's a teenage boy and yes, he's dying here

I came across the ocean,

Three long months I spent,

Every one of those days

Scratched into my arm

Now I come here for forgiveness

I come here to be free

I'm dying, yeah I'm dying, I'm dying

So I'll fight fire with fire,

And I'll take back the game,

And I'll grow up twisted and blank in a cage

I turn sixteen today

Listen to the spin, we're not being persecuted

Then you bomb our country to liberate the persecuted?

I wrote a letter just the other day

I got no reply so I thought I'd say

That I'm dying, I'm dying, I'm dying

I turn sixteen today.

Days on end

It's like I'm getting older

Bless me friend

It's like I'm growing colder

Days on end

I'm looking over my shoulder

Bless me friend

It's like I'm growing

I'm thirteen, I'm fourteen, I'm fifteen

I'm sixteen today
