I set the fire ablaze
lit it from far away
found it out yesterday
Called it a big mistake
a wake up call for me
figured it would be
That the story of this man
never was a plan
incompatible worlds we can't control
But that's the way it's always been
circumstantial human beings
By the way I'll be ok
so why aren't you the first to say
Today I'm born again
Call it a big mistake
to see it fade away
but the problem's not with me
So now I'm twenty two
feeling kind of blue
because the same thing's happening
Instead it's now my friends
the choices we all make
could prove life long mistakes
But I don't want to see your life fall right on through your hands
By the way I'll be ok
so why aren't you the first to say
I wish this never happened
I wonder what my life would be like now
if things just kind of went my way
Today you're born again
so now you're twenty-one
with no worries
Now you're twenty-one
with no worries
now you're twenty-one
Only twenty-one years young
