Get go

From the get go I have known
From the get go I've known

You're living in your prime so you know it's time to shine
No regrets you'll find if you go back to rewind
I know love is what's really on your mind
But you can't find her

You grew up in a town where they gave you cut eye in
Drowning in the bottles labelled "Drink me and you'll win"
Now you live in Hollywood so they began to grin
But you despise them

Need rest in your million dollar nest
Must confess it's the best
When you stand above the rest now
But then you will notice the same trend
All the money you will spend
Buys you loneliness all over again

From the get go I have known
From the get go I've known

In a land so far away
A boy was born with nobody to play
Every night his mother would say
“Don’t cry you’ll be King one day”

And day by day you’ll start to see
How everybody feeds off of prodigies
How easy it could be to lose your sanity
‘Till you fall asleep in agony

You lost in a game you tried to trust
What seems real isn’t real
Dotted lines you’ve signed the deal now
They came and they drained your soul away
Don’t complain you chose the fame
And you know you’re all the same now

From the get go I have known
From the get go I've known

The people think that they all know
About your life and what you own
They will never know of the things you’ve sold
When will the truth be told

Nobody believes what you’ve been through
Nobody can see right through the fool
You came into this game thinking you won’t lose
But from the get go you always knew

From the get go I have known
From the get go I've known
