[00:00.13]Never Shout Never - The Past
[00:01.44].
[00:03.54]
[00:05.47].
[00:12.43]And I sing songs about the past:
[00:18.55]How I was raised and how I was thrown out on my ass
[00:23.86]''Cause I didn''t care ''bout goin'' to school.
[00:35.99]And I saw the look in her eyes,
[00:42.30]My mother nearly cried when I told her I wanted to go-
[00:53.12]Just to prove them wrong.
[00:59.43]I''ve been smokin'' cigarettes since I was only 14,
[01:05.49]Just to find an escape from this town that was so mean to me.
[01:13.26].
[01:24.50]And I sing songs about the friends:
[01:30.07]The way we grew up, and all the loose ends.
[01:35.75]We used to laugh... ''cause we didn''t give a damn.
[01:48.50]And I saw the look in my brother''s eyes
[01:54.26]When I told him I was leaving, he couldn''t help but despise me-
[02:01.51]
[02:04.04]He''s wanted out his whole life.
[02:11.54]I''ve been smokin'' the green since I was merely 16,
[02:17.47]Just to find an escape from this town that was so mean to me.
[02:25.10].
[02:35.22]And I sing songs about the past...
[02:41.41].
[03:15.43]I plea for relief.
[03:18.37]This town won''t receive
[03:21.18]All the things that I want, the things that I need.
[03:27.56]And I''ll beg and I''ll beg-
[03:30.24]I''m down on my knees.
[03:33.43]Momma, oh momma,
[03:36.56]Let me please leave.
[03:39.45]I plea for relief.
[03:42.26]This town won''t receive
[03:44.89]All the things that I want, the things that I need.
[03:50.95]And all I ever wanted was love.
[04:02.16].
