I Remember

by jack-ghaven

I remember sixteen Watching a family fall apart I remember eighteen Giving love a fresh start I remember twenty Walking away from a girl Knowing there was plenty Of life in the world Yet now I'm twenty two Had some fun and bad breaks I remember having you Thinking I had what it takes I can feel twenty three Coming up far too fast When I look back what I'll see Is a polaroid of my short past Still be the same punk I am now Chasing all the same little thrills All the while wondering how I've survived the smoke, the drinks, and the pills I'm not looking for lessons or lectures I've already walked the stage twice Sorry but I'm not lookingfor direction Towards what you people call a life
