Many Years now and I have forgotten
All the people that have meant a lot
Don't you dare shed your light on me
'Cause your bulbs are cutting up my feet
Oh where we're going there's no need for our reason
'Cause I'm just a beast in boys clothing... yeah
Had a lot of heart but it's all gone
Shot it all to sh*t put a smile on
Had a lot of friends, I lost some too
but what the hell am I to do?
Don't step light you'll be forgotten
All our insides have turned rotten
I want you to want to rot the least
Let's just say there are things I need to know
Before I let myself go on to grow
Finding patterns in the things I do
Picking out the ruts, and quickly too
Oh where we're going there's no need for our reason
'Cause I'm just a beast in boys clothing... yeah
Had a lot of heart but it's all gone
Shot it all to sh*t put a smile on
Had a lot of friends, I lost some too
but what the hell am I to do?
Don't step light you'll be forgotten
All our insides have turned rotten
I want you to want to rot the least
Oh hey there's something in my heart
I think it's coming out to play
I wish I could do something more with my breath
then just keep my life
Maybe I'll just change myself instead
Had a lot of heart but it's not gone (don't step light you'll be forgotten)
Shot it all to sh*t kept my smile on (all our insides have turned rotten)
Had a lot of friends I lost some too (I want you to wanna rot the least)
But what the hell am I to do
