Story Behind The Song
Growing up covers the first verse. Raised in a middle class family and suburb i remember friends and people ill-affected by their motives. Its a song that releases mental pictures in relationships, people and friends in strange sceneries while growing up. Though the chorus clearly states a gangster and his drug use its way beyond that.

Lyrics
Remebring the things i saw
A cystal rock and a stolen car
Down the street and far away
A shooting star and a bleeding head
In the sky of gasoline
My burning eyes the things they've seen
Upon this hill of steal and glass
A stoned out prince in an orgy scene its.....
2 am this time has brought
Black birds into my room
Its 2am as gangsters gamble
For a needle and a spoon
You poor gansters sad
Like the creatures in my room
You poor gangsters sad
The great big blue the biting sun
The plastic man and his metal gun
In his mind there's something sweet
A little girl who...Whose left the scene
He waits all day under the sun
He waits all day oh...tired but strong
He can't beleive that love has failed
Its house will fall and it just might fade its.....
2 am this time has brought
Black birds into my room
Its 2am as gangsters gamble
For a needle and a spoon
You poor gansters sad
Like the creatures in my room
You poor gangsters sad
