I sing songs about the past I sing songs about the past Eu escrevo musicas sobre o passado And how I was raised and I was torn out on my ass And how I was raised and I was torn out on my ass E como eu fui criado eu estava despedaçado na minha bunda Cause I didn't care about going to school Cause I didn't care about going to school Porque eu não me importava em ir á escola And I saw the look in her eyes And I saw the look in her eyes E eu vi o olhar nos olhos dela My mother nearly cried when I told her that I wanted to go My mother nearly cried when I told her that I wanted to go Minha mãe quase chorou quando eu a contei que queria ir Just to prove them wrong Just to prove them wrong só para provar que eles estavam enganados I've been smoking cigarettes since I was only I've been smoking cigarettes since I was only Eu venho fumado cigarros desde quando tinha fourteen fourteen quatorze Just to find an escape from this town that was so mean to me Just to find an escape from this town that was so mean to me Só para achar uma saída dessa cidade que foi tão má para mim And I sing songs about my friends And I sing songs about my friends E eu escrevo musicas sobre os amigos The way we grew up and all the loose ends we used to love The way we grew up and all the loose ends we used to love O jeito que nós crescemos e todos os vagos fins que tivemos Cause we didn't give a damn Cause we didn't give a damn Porque eu não dou a minima And I saw the look in my brothers eyes And I saw the look in my brothers eyes E eu vi os olhares nos olhos de meus irmãos When I told him I was leaving When I told him I was leaving Quando os disse que estava indo embora He could help but despise me He could help but despise me Ele podia ajudar mas me desprezou He wanted out his whole life He wanted out his whole life Ele me queria fora da vida dele I've been smoking the green since I was mearly 16 I've been smoking the green since I was mearly 16 Eu tenho fumado o verde desde que tenho 16 Just to find an escape from this town that was so mean to me Just to find an escape from this town that was so mean to me Só para achar uma saida dessa cidade que foi tão má para mim I sing songs about the past. I sing songs about the past. Eu escrevo musicas sobre o passado.
