Legend In My Living Room

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
When I was just seventeenI ran away from homeTo be with all the pretty peopleTo be on my own.Bright lights and trains and bedsit stainsAnd pavements paved with goldAnd I believed in everythingThat everybody told me...Have mercyHave mercy on me.I found myself in a lonely placeWith a suitcase full of dreamsAnd I soon grew up to realizeWhat living in the doghouse means.But everyday I told myselfGood things gonna happen soon'Cause I knew that I was going to beA legend in my living room.Have mercyHave mercy on me.(Welcome to this perfect world)Now everyday on a dead end streetIs where I spend my time.The dust has been collectingOn the corners of my mind.But I've shed my tears in bitter dropsUntil the thorn trees bloomedTo take the spiky fruitTo crown myself the Queen of doom.Have mercyHave mercy on me.
