Rite of Spring

[00:23.00] I was locked all day in the summer heat
[00:27.71]
[00:30.93] In a small brown house in suburban streets
[00:34.24] The skateboard and my shit guitar
[00:37.26] I dream all day that they would get me far
[00:40.59] My dad would ask me about my grades
[00:43.78] The asshole sports that I never played
[00:47.20] And then I'd ask about the girls he'd date
[00:50.39] Behind our backs when mom would stay up late
[00:53.66] It was near when I turned sixteen
[00:56.74] Got kicked out of school and so it seemed
[00:59.89] That things were closing in and ready to blow
[01:03.19] My dad moved out about that year or so
[01:06.53] It took an hour to start a punk rock band
[01:09.80] To offset my fucked up family land
[01:12.97] And as I held my mom would start to cry
[01:16.39] I swore ourselves a better life.
[01:19.27] If I had a chance for another try...
[01:24.29] I wouldn't change a thing...
[01:26.24] This made me all of who I am inside...
[01:30.60] And if I could thank God
[01:32.71] That I am here and that I am alive...
[01:37.09] And everyday I wake
[01:39.11] I tell myself a little harmless lie...
[01:44.12] The whole wide world is mine...
[01:47.81]
[02:11.60] The summer's gone, the years have passed
[02:14.93] My friends have changed, a few did last
[02:17.85] The smallest dreams got pushed aside
[02:21.10] The largest ones, that changed my life
[02:24.42] And all I've wished for has come to pass
[02:28.02] From rock'n'roll to love and cash
[02:30.85] It's all success if it's what you need
[02:34.12] Do what you like and do it honestly
[02:37.56] If I had a chance for another try...
[02:41.90] I wouldn't change a thing...
[02:44.19] This made me all of who I am inside...
[02:48.45] And if I could thank God
[02:50.48] That I am here and that I am alive...
[02:54.79] And everyday I wake
[02:56.75] I tell myself a little harmless lie...
[03:00.94] The whole wide world is mine...
[03:04.34] Yo, oh, oh-oh
[03:07.74] Yo, oh, oh
[03:11.04] Yo, oh, oh-oh
[03:14.08] Yo, oh, oh
[03:17.04] Yo, oh, oh-oh
[03:20.51] Yo, oh, oh
[03:23.77] Yo, oh, oh-oh
[03:26.92] Yo, oh, oh
[03:29.22] If I had a chance for another try...
[03:33.24] I wouldn't change a thing...
[03:35.96] This made me all of who I am inside...
[03:39.97] And if I could thank God
[03:42.29] That I am here and that I am alive...
[03:46.28] And everyday I wake
[03:48.62] I tell myself a little harmless lie...
[03:53.32] The whole wide world is mine...
[03:55.78] If I had a chance for another try...
[03:59.78] I wouldn't change a thing...
[04:01.70] This made me all of who I am inside...
[04:06.30] And if I could thank God
[04:08.16] That I am here and that I am alive...
[04:12.43] And everyday I wake
[04:14.76] I tell myself a little harmless lie...
[04:18.42] The whole wide world is mine...
