I saw the fakes, the forgeries, the verdicts, the guilty pleas
Erase the names, wrote in our own, shining, new history
I was there kid, I was a witness, I saw what you did (x2)
Can't bear it, another time, I saw what you did (x2)
When you were young and vicious
Your wheels they spun, out of control
You never lost, no matter the cost,
Even when it cost you, control.
I watched ya bleed, in the limelight
You took your bow, you took my light
But I didn't mind, after all you were mine
And I helped you to it, I helped you do it
Someone'll take away, all of my hate
But you couldn't do it, save me from ruin
When I was young and wicked
I came undone, out of control
I never lost, half what it cost
Even when it cost me, the whole.
When we were young, and vicious
Those songs we'd sung, they took their toll
Must've got lost, as good it was
Hope it didn't cost us, our souls.
When you were young, and vicious
Your wheels they spun, out of control
You never lost, no matter the cost
Even when it cost you, control
Even when it cost you…
