This is a puzzle 

I don't seem to fit 

all the sounds they like just seem like shit 

I don't know if they're dumb or I'm getting old 

there's a fire inside of me 

and I wish that they could see 

there's more to this than what they seem to think 

you've got to feel it - you've got to grow wit hit 

don't forget the past but get out and explore 

it's not that I hate them but I don't fit in 

though there was a day when I tried to 

now I'm driving with my own song in my head 

cutting edge traditionalist 

the cool guy with the biting wit 

but the cool crowd seems way ahead of me 

or behind me 

no matter what people say there's always pressure 

but I can't be a slave to others ideas 

I'm going to do what I want to 

going to play what I want to 

so at the end of the day I can look back and laugh
