Our story starts when I was fourteen years old: |
|
My friends and I snuck out for our first punk show |
|
We stuffed our beds and stole my sister's car |
|
And spent the whole way there playing our air guitars |
|
I had no clue what I was getting myself into |
|
A few years later, met some guys in a rock band |
|
Picked up a keyboard and I started singing |
|
We wrote some songs and played our local bars |
|
But never would've guessed that we would ever make it this far |
|
Now and then, I still remember it sinking in |
|
I called my mom on the way from NC to LA |
|
'cause it helped me to feel close to home |
|
I told her not to worry, got my best friends with me |
|
Now I'm livin' my life on the road |
|
Brought back some stories from the places we'd been to |
|
And learned a lot from all the drama we went through |
|
Then cut a record, started building a name |
|
Got a real fanbase and our first taste of fame |
|
It's funny how life has a way of just working out |
|
I called my mom on the way from NC to LA |
|
'cause it helped me to feel close to home |
|
I told her not to worry, got my best friends with me |
|
Now I'm livin' my life on the road |
|
We've come a long way since the old days |
|
And I'm proud to say I wouldn't change anything at all |
|
'Cause once this road comes to an end |
|
I'll have the memories of when: |
|
I found it so hard to see but mom tried to believe |
|
That life on the road isn't bad |
|
'cause sooner or later, we all have to leave |
|
But I'll never forget my way back |
|
I called my mom on the way from NC to LA |
|
'cause it helped me to feel close to home |
|
I told her not to worry, got my best friends with me |
|
Now I'm livin' my life on the road |
