Wolfgang - When I Was Young lyrics

rate me

One day, my daddy told me,

You're nothing special, you're not worth it,

But my heart didn't understand that shit, and

I promised you, brother, I'd do it, hey and

Succeed at it

When I was young,

I could not see the signs,

But one, I'm a monster, (and a superstar)

And something like my father's son

(Like my father's son)

There's supposed to be beauty deep inside,

But deep inside is where I hide,

And I can assure you, mama

It ain't so beautiful, so deep inside

Bridge:

When I was a kid, since I was a kid

No matter what I did, no matter what I did

I could not fit in, I could not fit in, hey

So I prayed, please save my life,

But my prayer comes from within

Chorus x2:

Sometimes, I wonder if he really died for me,

Bolts of lightning, did he really split the sea,

Could he move a mountain for me?

Can he open the gates, and set one of us free?

Verse:

All I ever wanted were fucked up friends,

So we could sit in our shits and sins, baby

All we ever wanted was to make it big,

Ginger haired and gin, I think I'll take a swig

(Ha, ha, ha, ha)

I heard you been through some things,

And you could really use a friend,

You're going down a road, and I've already been

Our time is running thin, sister!

There ain't no reason (ain't no beginning)

Ain't no child, ain't no winning

(This is just like a dream,

And I have a feeling,

You and everything may not be

What you come off to seem,

I'm stuck between a dream and reality,

Fatality, fatality) x2

Bridge x2:

When I was a kid, since I was a kid

No matter what I did, no matter what I did

I could not fit in, I could not fit in, hey-hey-hey

So I prayed, please save my life,

But my prayer comes from within,

(Comes from within)

Chorus:

Sometimes, I wonder if he really died for me,

Bolts of lightning, did he really split the sea,

Could he move a mountain for me?

Can he open the gates? Can he open the gates?

(Hey, hey)

Sometimes, I wonder if he really died for me,

Bolts of lightning, did he really split the sea,

Could he move a mountain for me?

If I fell, Would you come back save me?

(Can he find it in his heart, find it in his heart,

To love me, to love me-oooo

Love me, love me,

Cause I'm wonderin, cause I'm wonderin)
