Middle Lyrics - Fifteen

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
