I set the fire ablaze   lit it from far away   found it out yesterday   Called it a big mistake   a wake up call for me   figured it would be   That the story of this man   never was a plan   incompatible worlds we can't control   But that抯 the way it's always been   circumstantial human beings   By the way I'll be ok   so why aren抰 you the first to say   Today I'm born again   Call it a big mistake   to see it fade away   but the problem's not with me   So now I'm twenty two   feeling kind of blue   because the same thing's happening   Instead it's now my friends   the choices we all make   could prove life long mistakes   But I don't want to see your life fall right on through your hands   By the way I'll be ok   so why aren抰 you the first to say   I wish this never happened   I wonder what my life would be like now   if things just kind of went my way   Today you抮e born again   so now you're twenty-one   with no worries   Now you're twenty-one   with no worries   now you're twenty-one   Only twenty-one years young
