Lyrics

When I was brought up in the classroom I wasn't calm at all I'd speak my own opinions I'd be bouncing off the walls The teacher had enough of me And one day she made the call To send me to the doctor And fix up what she thought was wrong He gave me a prescription And my family agreed I'd try it in the classroom And see if it was right for me When I was on my medication The teacher, she was pleased I'd calmly sit and do whatever It was she asked of me And those days Never seem to change Oh no All my life has been a lonely road Since I was eight years old Since I was eight years old Forced to do what I was told Since I was eight years old (Mhm) La da dum da da La da dum da da Now my own opinions Didn't flow so easily I'd do what I was told But lacked creativity This went on for years And my friends, they all agreed I was like a walking zombie Nothing close to the old me And those days Never seem to change Oh no All my life has been a lonely road Since I was eight years old Since I was eight years old Forced to do what I was told Since I was eight years old (Mhm) La da dum da da La da dum da da When I turned fifteen I realised what they gave to me Could make me money on the street That I could spend on better things I got the best dope I could buy And resold it just to keep me high Now I sing a junkie's lullaby No no no La da dum da da All my life has been a lonely road Since I was eight years old Since I was eight years old Forced to do what I was told Since I was eight years old Mhm I got my first prescription At eight years old I tell my story from the bedroom Where I overdosed Mhm Starting at eight years old
