Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Fatal habits, broken dreams
Waking up isn't all it seems
We held on to what we couldn't see
I carried you, you carried me

Camped out in Hollywood
Roasting letters from your father
We proved survival of the 'why bother'

[Chorus]
We were young and excited
We were lost and alone
We were free but misguided
And we had no place to call home

[Verse 2]
Same old story, different song
Most people get the lyrics wrong
Verse by verse we rode a raging bull
Stomach empty, balls full

Late nights in Hollywood
Banging guitars and boys
Swing sets and cigarettes were our joys

[Chorus]
We were young and excited
Lost and alone
We were free but misguided
And we had no place to call home

[Verse 3]
Why don't the Gideons leave condoms in the drawer?
Bibles don't save many people any more
We took our quarters in the bathroom
There were dollars on the floor
I looked at you, you said to me
'Jay, we're worth more'

[Chorus]
We were young and excited
Lost and alone
We were free but misguided
And we'd found a place...
To call home
