Lyrics
Find another songI don't see me mad at situations, I see me turn and walk away
I see a tattoo on my right thigh that I will probably regret one day
Yeah, I will probably regret one day
But now I'm happy to be bonding in a kitchen with my friends
A spool of thread, a few more good vibes, a safety pin, and a ball point pen
A safety pin and a ball point pen
A safety pin and a ball point pen, and a ball point pen
But there are answers here that I am trying to figure out
Since all your questions got harder to dodge and dip around
And there is nothing wrong with my lifestyle, no matter how many times I tell myself
To breathe in
Hold it, hold it, now let it out
Now let it out
One day, I will realize I don't need this, because it is just not who I am
Until that day comes, I'll keep my eyes closed, and I will try to feel all of the effects
Yeah, I will try to feel all of the effects
But now I'm talking way too fast, a little bit louder than I should
Trying to say thank you for understanding
My side of the story the best that you could
My side of the story the best that you could
My side of the story the best that you could
Oh, the best that you could
(Whoa-oh-oh)
But there are answers here that I am trying to figure out
Since all your questions got harder to dodge and dip around
And there is nothing wrong with your lifestyle, no matter how many times they tell themselves
Just breathe in
Hold it, hold it, now let it out
And this how the cool boyfriend sits in the passenger seat of his girlfriend's car
He's looking at me
I wish the light would turn green
Set me free
Oh, set me free
Oh, set me
Teach my rolling veins, where there's a will there is a way
Just cut me open
Let me drain
Oh, let me drain
Oh, let me
I'll move to Florida
I'll buy a brand new pick up truck
And I'll tint all the windows, including the driver's side
Now you can't see me
So you can't touch me
When I sit at the red light
And watch your boyfriend wonder if I'm inside
(If I am dead inside)
