Amateur was the first song I ever wrote. I was 14.

Lyrics:
Every morning I get up
And take a long black swim in my coffee cup
And I wonder why the hell am I here
Introspective is my middle name
I've asked myself these same questions
For more than 18 years
What do I do
What do I say
Who am I supposed to be today
I'm an amateur
At this thing called life
My parents tell me listen to us lad
You've got to have initiative
So get out there and be bold
The cynics say young man don't you see
It's not your job to be inquisitive
So shut up and do what your told
Everywhere I go it seems to me
There's somone telling me just who I am
Which only goes to show
That in this age of digital technology
And self-help therapy no one
And I mean no one really knows
And take a long black swim in my coffee cup
And I wonder why the hell am I here
Introspective is my middle name
I've asked myself these same questions
For more than 18 years
What do I do
What do I say
Who am I supposed to be today
I'm an amateur
At this thing called life
My parents tell me listen to us lad
You've got to have initiative
So get out there and be bold
The cynics say young man don't you see
It's not your job to be inquisitive
So shut up and do what your told
Everywhere I go it seems to me
There's somone telling me just who I am
Which only goes to show
That in this age of digital technology
And self-help therapy no one
And I mean no one really knows
