Edwin McCain - Solitude Lyrics
Tim he was a good friendYea was a brother of mineWe were imaginary comic book superheroesKids wasting timeWe were prisoners of our youthWe were growing up strongtil the day he was taken awayFor something he did wrongTim came round just the other dayAnd boy he had some stories to tellHis mama kept him locked up in a rehabAlthough the doctors said he was wellHe said yeah I been through the angerAnd the hatred towards my momAnd I put all that behind meJust tell me what was it like to go to your promHe said thank you mom for fixingMy clouded broken mindBut excuse me if I seem a little rudeWhile I was missing my childhood, my brother and my primeYou enjoyed the convenience of my solitudeWell growing up these days just aint easyAnd the kids theyre doing the best that they canSo mama you better think twiceBefore you lock your kid up and throw away the keycause soon your little boy is gonna be a manHe said thank you mom for fixingMy clouded broken mindBut excuse me if I seem a little rudeWhile I was missing my childhood, my brother and my primeYou enjoyed the convenience of my solitudeTim left town yesterdayHe left me with these wordsHe said yeah I know this lifes got a lot to giveBut my childhood is goneAnd Im not afraid of dyingIm gonna grab the world by the horns and learn how to liveHe said thank you mom for fixingMy clouded broken mindBut excuse me if I seem a little rudeWhile I was missing my childhood, my brother and my primeYou enjoyed the convenience of my solitude
