We grew up together 

We saw it all we thought we had it made

but how was I gonna know 

That the bond we had would soon begin to fade

The times we spent the fun we had 

Are the memories that just turned bad

But that's the price we pay for being young

We roamed the streets of every town 

We almost had the country on its knees

But mass acceptance dragged you down 

We were a problem overcome with ease

But unlike as we thought was right 

We went down without a fight

And we let them grind us into the ground

The years have gone behind us 

The things we've said and done

It's strange to be nostalgic 

When you're only 21

There came a time when you were gone, 

When everything you stood for disappeared

And now I look at the shadow left 

And I doubt if you will reappear

'Cos you've left a legacy of clones 

Of broken minds in broken homes

And it looks like I've become a memory
