lyrics

I wasn't meant to fit in
I'm a black sheep, I'm on retiling
You'll never catch me sleeping
But I'm always dreaming and looking for reasons

To hold on, hold on, hold on
So hold on, hold on, hold on

The life I knew is always there just creeping up behind
As years go by I know I'm running out of time
To get done the things that's going through my mind
If I don't I'll slowly turn into a different guy

Johnny Boy is dead
Johnny Boy is dead

I made my bed so I lay in it
It's a disaster, but get over it
Unless you want to make it
While I'm lying there naked

So hold on, hold on, hold on
So hold on, hold on, hold on

So many things have come and gone since I was 17
All my life it's like I've been living someone else's dream
If you knew me you would surely see a brilliant mind
But to me it's always working too much overtime

Johnny boy is dead
Johnny boy is dead
