Skid Row – 18 And Life Lyrics 18 years ago
Skid Row is amazing. Their songs really have meaning behind a lot of them.

Are you guys ready for a long one [[hehe]]?! To me, this song is based on Ricky's suicide... I could be interpreting it wrong, b/c this was made way b4 my time [[and the music video tells the story for you]]... but a lot of what is said in it I think has a deeper meaning. First off, through the whole song he's talkin about Ricky's hard times in life, and like that's all he'd ever had. He was only 18, and he had his whole life ahead of him... the line "your crime is time" doesn't refer to literal jail time... maybe it's saying that the only crime he committed was letting time take him away, and giving in to the hardships that were happening at the time. Maybe it means the time he has to spend now will be the time he spends gone...the time he should have had to spend the rest of his life. Then it says "Fought like a switchblade so no one could take him down."... like no one could defeat him.. maybe when at the end, when it says "He fired his six-shot to the wind - that child blew a child away."... it means he took himself away. Afterall, who better to defeat u when u r undefeated than yourself.

this was one of my brothers favorite songs... he loved it. Really, all he had in common with it was his dependancy on alcohol, and how careless he was with life. He was only 18... with his whole life to go... and he took it from himself. Like it says, "You can't think of dying when the bottle's your best friend"... dying wasn't an issue to him, it's not real, and not something that he thought could happen to him. This song reminds me a lot of him... all of it... maybe my opinion is just biased...

I'm only 14, and this song was a ways b4 my time, but this is what it means to me....
