I was locked all day in the summer heat

In a small brown house in suburban streets

With a skateboard and my shit guitar

I dreamed all day that they would get me far

My dad would ask me about my grades

The a*****e sports that i never played

And then i'd ask about the girls he'd date

Behind our back when mom had stayed up late

It was near when i turned sixteen

Got kicked out of school and so it seemed

Things were closing in and ready to blow

My dad moved out about that year or so

It took an hour to start a punk rock band

To upset my f**ked up family land

And as i held my mum would start to cry

I swore ourselves a better life

If i had a chance for another try

I wouldn't change a thing

This made me all on who i am inside

And if i could thank god

That i am here and that i am alive

And everyday i wake

I tell myself a little harmless lie

The whole wide world is mine

The summers gone the years have passed

My friends have changed a few did last

The smallest dreams got pushed aside

The largest ones that changed my life

And all i wish for was come to past

From rock and roll to love and cash

It's all success if it's what you need

Do what you like and do it honestly

If i had a chance for another try

I wouldn't change a thing

This made me all on who i am inside

And if i could thank god

That i am here and that i am alive

And everyday i wake

I tell myself a little harmless lie

The whole wide world is mine

Yo oh oh oh

Yo oh oh

Yo oh oh oh

Yo oh oh

Yo oh oh oh

Yo oh oh

Yo oh oh oh

Yo oh oh

If i had a chance for another try

I wouldn't change a thing

This made me all on who i am inside

And if i could thank god

That i am here and that i am alive

And everyday i wake

I tell myself a little harmless lie

The whole wide world is mine

If i had a chance for another try

I wouldn't change a thing

This made me all on who i am inside

And if i could thank god

That i am here and that i am alive

And everyday i wake

I tell myself a little harmless lie

The whole wide world is mine
