Hey Metahumans! My name is Amethyst Jackson and in this bi-weekly blog, called Song of the Week, we will talk about music. Through this blog, I will take you on a journey to explore songs from every genre of music and see how they relate to the DC Universe. Let's get into it for today! This week's song is...
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Another night in our parent’s basements
Singing every song loud
Until the neighbours lose their patience
‘Cause we never turn it down
Ain’t it crazy how fast time goes
For some wild kids in baggy clothes
Who just threw away the compass
Heading where no one knows
We grew up on stages
Say what you want but we won’t stop dreaming
We don’t want to wake up
Night after night gotta find that feeling
Twenty five summers doesn’t feel so long
A thousand miles away but we’re right wherе we belong
We grеw up on stages
But somehow nothing changes
....
