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
