Rookie Lyrics
i guess you never do until it's happening to you
like all the fun turns into shame
and all the "could have beens" rearrange
so little time so many crimes guilt like a chain chokes my will away
redemption never seemed so cruel
and all my gods never seemed so weak
wake up engage now derailed and enraged
it used to be so easy
get up i'm game now sick and i'm tame counting cost with lost
where is the hope they gave
don't think that i can't hear you laugh
i used to be a lot like you but now i'm only me
drink to pills to shots turns into shock
a habit and a pawn
for every hand goes round the pain gets so damned loud
the hammer hits and i'm down
trust no one
hey why should i they gave me the poison dressed like life
cheated smacked up and diseased cry to sleep and fight to eat
used to be a pro at this
now I've broken my own wrist
rotten teeth and life unsung you'll forget me when I'm gone
wake up engage now derailed and enraged
it used to be so easy
get up i'm game now sick and i'm tame counting cost with lost
i used to be a lot like you but now i'm only me
This song's f*ckin beautiful.The music,the lyrycs,everything.It is really great
this has to be the best boy sets fire song
this is a great boy sets fire song. one of the few songs that BSF didn't have to scream their fucking heads off for it to sound good.
youre definetly not putting down songs in which they scream... although the lyrics in this are to say the least awesome.. im sure it would have been just as good if they had "screamed their fucking heads off" ta taa
lutikriss stop being such an asshole...
Stop thinking your the REAL boy sets fire fan...
Poser...
im glad youre so confident and aggressive online behind a fake username
this is one of the few songs whose lyrics have affected me in more than the general aesthetic sense. Great song.
this is an awesome song. this has got to say something to all you people out there who do drugs. i saw bsf in san diego and the lead singer told the crowd that this was about a friend that he had that was a addicted to drugs. this line really gets to me "they gave me the poison dressed like life" that is an awesome line.
This was the song that amde me buy the album. THis song hooked me. Vehicle got me into boy sets fire tho but rookie made me wanna go out and buy a coupla their albums.
i think this song besides drugs is about leaving your friends, "i used to be alot like you" maybe
