Lyrics
Metabolism
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I wanna be outrageous,
but inside I know I'm plain
so plain, just plain,
Boring and plain
Chorus:
Silently obsessed with death
Just like anyone I guess
Trying for the perfect life
End up being in denial
I wanna be somebody
wanna be somebody like you
Like you, like you, like you
Like you, instead of me
Silently obsessed with death
Just like anyone I guess
Trying for the perfect life
End up being in denial
