The First 21 - Sixx: A.M.

Well, the first 21

It’s a criminal ride

Whatever you’ve done

You can get out alive

The first 21

Is it Heaven or Hell?

But who really cares

We were under a spell

The first 21

And those hot summer nights

We were high as the stars

Under big city lights

(When we were young)

But when we were young

We learned how to tell our own lies

Telling ourselves it was paradise

And sometimes we even believed it

When we were young

Was like nothing that we’d ever seen

Pushing ourselves to have bigger dreams

And sometimes we even believed it

When we were young

The first 21

Was a coming of age

We would take on the world

Like we’re turning a page

The first 21

It’s not what you think

Sometimes you fly

But sometimes you sink

(When we were young)

But when we were young

We learned how to tell our own lies

Telling ourselves it was paradise

And sometimes we even believed it

When we were young

Was like nothing that we’d ever seen

Pushing ourselves to have bigger dreams

And sometimes we even believed it

When we were young

But when we were young

We learned how to tell our own lies

Telling ourselves it was paradise

And sometimes we even believed it

When we were young

Was like nothing that we’d ever seen

Pushing ourselves to have bigger dreams

And sometimes we even believed it

When we were young

When we were young

When we were young

When we were young

When we were young

We were just twenty-one

When we were young
