Young boy around seventeen Already left with no friends, no self esteem It was always cold but he didn't feel a thing He said "I'll show 'em what I'm worth the day I turn eighteen" He ran away today And I was watching as he threw all his stuff away Without a place to live It was the first ever day this city felt alive When he shouted "Who the hell's better than me anyway" Yeah, yeah Who the hell's better than me anyway Yeah, yeah Who the hell's better than me anyway Yeah, yeah Who the hell's better than me anyway Yeah, yeah Who can make it if not me anyway
