Fifteen - Middle lyrics

I heard a song once and it was beautiful and it was free and it was my dream

I lost my housing at the sweet young age of fourteen

I heard a song on the radio, it was my dream

I found the value of a song walking in the rain cold and alone with no place to go

I found the value of a song singing to myself

Just make it through the night, keep awake till the sunlight

It don't matter who sold 6 million

It don't matter who made 6 million

What you call success I call excess

What I'd call important is relevance

I heard a song once it was by Husker Du

They tried to sell their songs for a million dollars

They probably never knew that they kept one scared kid alive

They traded gold for what they had inside

All my friends now now on TV

All my friends now sold what they love for money

All my friends now are bought and sold so easily

All my friends now think they can afford not to be free
