System of a Down

System of a Down - Peter Squires

When you dumpster dove a shirt of

A band that you never heard of

I knew you were not the same

Cuz system of a down is lame

I used to like them too

When I was in high school

And you talked about giving yourself

Home tattoos like you

Discovered something great

But you were 10 years late

Ink razors and fire

Only make sense if you're a minor

But you were 24 going on 25

You thought you were just being born

But you were already alive

While I was getting ready to

Welcome you home and start our life

You were still learning to live

And you decided you could not give

Me anything could not give

Me anything could not give

Me anything

You should've stayed in california

Where the skies are always warmer

And your friends don't age

And you can copulate

With no consequence

To your old boyfriends

So go forth on your adventure

You will never have to answer

To another face

That wishes you hadn't changed

But once you feel like you've lived

You will regret what you did

When you were 24 going on 25

You thought you were just being born

But you were already alive

While I was getting ready to

Welcome you home and start our life

You were still learning to live

And you decided you could not give

Me anything could not give

Me anything could not give

Me anything
