- 21 Lyrics / with translationsTwenty-one
I stumbled fore they came to get you,
You locked yourself away.
Steady on
The guilty trials they'll send to test you,
I swear i cried that day.
But I'll wait for you to waken
I'll find the words to say and
I'll smile and take a picture on the day,
You turn twenty-one.
So blow out the candles
Make a wish and celebrate,
I know I'm here, see more with each day you're gone away.
Twenty-one
The day they cut your spirit from you
Scarred my heart with pain,
Freedom on to inside a cage they kept you
And watched you die that way.
But I'll wait for you to waken
I'll find the words to say and
I'll smile and take a picture on the day,
You turn twenty-one.
So blow out the candles
Make a wish and celebrate
I know I'm here, see more with each day you're gone away. (x2)
Gone away (x4)
So blow out the candles
Make a wish and celebrate
I know I'm here, see more with each day you're gone away. (x2)
Gone away (x4)
I stumbled fore they came to get you,
You locked yourself away.
Steady on
The guilty trials they'll send to test you,
I swear i cried that day.
But I'll wait for you to waken
I'll find the words to say and
I'll smile and take a picture on the day,
You turn twenty-one.
So blow out the candles
Make a wish and celebrate,
I know I'm here, see more with each day you're gone away.
Twenty-one
The day they cut your spirit from you
Scarred my heart with pain,
And watched you die that way.
But I'll wait for you to waken
I'll find the words to say and
I'll smile and take a picture on the day,
You turn twenty-one.
So blow out the candles
Make a wish and celebrate
I know I'm here, see more with each day you're gone away. (x2)
Gone away (x4)
So blow out the candles
Make a wish and celebrate
I know I'm here, see more with each day you're gone away. (x2)
Gone away (x4)
