Mondays came along, we'd think nothing of it 'Til we got a little older Fridays came along and felt the start of something Trying to get a grip on who we were So Saturdays became our time As we could bend the rules and step out of line When the night seemed attractive and the day seemed just for us Tales Of A Teenage Mind blur the lines of truth or lie Boredom and freedom went hand it hand and when it came down to it life was but a free ride Waiting for moments that would light a fuse The ideas that made our minds tick Our motives were merely naive prospects We were only living for kicks Like kicking around in fields And telling stories that were supposedly real Having a laugh wishing time would last and thinking "We've got this all sussed" Tales Of A Teenage Mind blur the lines of truth or lie Boredom and freedom went hand it hand and when it came down to it life was but a free ride The trials and tribulations that would seem the be all and end all The same old shit that came from the same old people The lessons you learnt outside the classrooms are the ones that stick with you Before our ideals seemed to change and the weeks would waste away

As soon as I walk out of my door I know I'm not safe anymore 'Cause they see me here, see me there I'm walking alone they're trying to match my stare But I know where I stand And I like to think I know who I am What is set in my soul I've sewn onto the sleeve of my coat I'm young I'm brash I've got bite and I'm flash I'm lost I'm found I've come first I've come last I'm not big, I'm not small I don't want to be what I know I'm not at all And I know where I stand And I like to think I know who I am What is set in my soul I've sewn onto the sleeve of my coat I've got my kind of trends I don't have to go pretend To be someone I'm really not So go and take a good look this ain't a faced Take a good look this ain't a facade High road rollers Back alley clans To live while I'm young To do what I can 'Cause the first place fifth The fifth place first What goes around comes around I'll wait my turn...
