'82 Lyrics
Long ago, there was a dead rat caught in a chinese trap
And all I had to show were the ashes of a life that had no chance
It wasn't right, but all I could do was be another number that couldn't refuse
What a lie, with nothing to lose
Something happened in 1982
Are you the enemy? Let me show you what you did to me
Once I get away from here, I know it's gonna be my time
I've seen too much to keep me here, I don't want yours I just want mine
I'm never alone... I'm always in the middle talking to myself
And all I want to know... Am I really on the road? I just can't tell
It isn't right, but all I can do is take it to a level where I can't refuse
It's a lie, I need you to see, let me show you what you did to me
Once I get away from here, I know it's going to be my time
I've seen too much to keep me here, I don't want yours I just want mine
Before I get away from here, I think I better set you straight
I know my place is miles from here, you'll never understand, I'll make my fate
Deep down there's a devil inside
He can make you give up everything
Settle if you want to die
Or you can live for a world that must be free
Once I get away from here, I know it's going to be my time
I've seen too much to keep me here, I don't want yours I just want mine
Before I get away from here, I think I better set you straight
I know my place is miles from here, you'll never understand, I'll make my fate
Once I get away from here…
Once I get away from here, I know it's going to be my time
And all I had to show were the ashes of a life that had no chance
It wasn't right, but all I could do was be another number that couldn't refuse
What a lie, with nothing to lose
Something happened in 1982
Are you the enemy? Let me show you what you did to me
I've seen too much to keep me here, I don't want yours I just want mine
And all I want to know... Am I really on the road? I just can't tell
It isn't right, but all I can do is take it to a level where I can't refuse
It's a lie, I need you to see, let me show you what you did to me
I've seen too much to keep me here, I don't want yours I just want mine
Before I get away from here, I think I better set you straight
I know my place is miles from here, you'll never understand, I'll make my fate
He can make you give up everything
Settle if you want to die
Or you can live for a world that must be free
I've seen too much to keep me here, I don't want yours I just want mine
Before I get away from here, I think I better set you straight
I know my place is miles from here, you'll never understand, I'll make my fate
Once I get away from here…
Once I get away from here, I know it's going to be my time
