Il testo della The past

And i sing songs about the past
How i was raised and i was thrown on my ass
'cause i didn't care about going to school

And i saw the look in her eyes
My mother nearly cried
When i told her that i wanted to go
Just to prove them wrong

I've been smoking cigarettes
Since i was only fourteen
Just to find an escape from this town
That was so mean to me

And i sing songs about my friends
The way we grew up
And all the loose ends we used to love
'cause we didn't give a damn

And i saw the look in my brother's eyes
When i told him i was leaving
He couldn't help but despise me
He's wanted it out his whole life

I've been smoking the green
Since i was merely sixteen
Just to find an escape from this town
That was so mean to me

And i sing songs about the past

I play for relief this town won't receive
All the things that i want, the things that i need
And i'll beg and i'll beg i'm down on my knees
Mamma, oh mamma, let me please leave

I play for relief this town won't receive
All the things that i want, the things that i need
And i'll
All i ever wanted was love
