why am i 12 years old in my mind
im crying all the time
im waiting on another ride
i killed my car last night when i
ignored the check engine light
how will i survive if i
can't do anything right
in my life
im old enough
not smart enough
im fucking up
and screwing everything up
im a pain
im in the way
its all on me
ive got no one else to blame
i got denied for a car loan
and credit card
goddamn this shit is hard
im old enough
not smart enough
im fucking up
and screwing everything up
im a pain
im in the way
its all on me
ive got no one else to blame
im afraid to act my own age
well i should be this
and i should be that
but i dont have the emotional intelligence for that

i wanna dream about you
but im sick nyquil should do the trick
10 am im going back to bed
dreams of you make my head not spin
jump into my bed
give up my plans today
too hard i need a distraction
i got you and me in my dreams
its not fair when life says
"you gotta play on hard mode"
cause i threw out the instructions
and only used the cheat codes
jump into my bed
give up my plans today
too hard i need a distraction
i got you and me in my dreams
did i really think i'd skate on by
be just fine but im not just fine

im a cliche
live the truth everyday
22 drop out
just so i could sing out loud
ill make it big i swear
if not ill die trying
okay maybe thats a lie
i almost died trying last july
why won't i ever be afraid of the dark
afraid of the dark
ill walk right in like the light was always on
and i know its gonna hurt but i like the way it hurts sometimes
sometimes
cause im a stupid masochist goddammit my ex was right
ill never be who i want to be
cause i rhyme like shit and im sick of this
my art will never pan out the way i want
still can't believe im not happy
been this way since i turned 16
cause im stuck on the past
ill never go back
and im haunted by the ways ill always lack
why won't i ever be afraid of the dark
afraid of the dark
ill walk right in like the light was always on
and i know its gonna hurt but i like the way it hurts sometimes
sometimes
cause im a stupid masochist goddammit my ex was right
my ex was right

the monsters now have gone to sleep
to rest their heads and have big dreams
they're working out doing push ups
to get stronger for when i slip up
he said hey kid to be like me
ive been in and out and im 53
face this now don't look back
you'll be glad you did when you have the time
hey man whatcha up to now
ive been missing you since we got out
you said "oh no, it's all down hill"
"but im okay cause a few never hurt anyone"
I said hey now don't be like that
you've been in and out theres not turning back
telling lies won't get you far
you're only lying to yourself
every time that i go home
i wanna give up and get stoned
but i live with my dad
to stop me from doing that
every time that i go home
i wanna give up and get stoned
but i live with my dad
to stop me from doing that
every time that i go home
i wanna give up and get stoned
but i live with my dad
to stop me from doing that

it's not as simple as it seems
im stranded here bursting at the seams
running fast now and im running to the train now
ticket last night cause im leaving this morning
gotta get away gotta gotta run fast now
sorry but i had to leave
i can't believe you hate me
you tore me in two but i don't blame you
it's just who you are
crying in my seat
screaming please kill me
need to find a gun
shoot me please someone
you probably won't see my side
sure you think i lied
i can't believe you hate me
you tore me in two but i don't blame you
it's just who you are

im gonna sleep all day
shut eye's a joke
why can't i just stay in one place
im staying awake
i got all i need
but my mind just aches
its not fair
im low then im high
but i wanna feel alright all the time
not fine one day then totally not okay
who's pulling these strings?
im calling foul play
everything feels like im drowning
i cant breathe is this how it aught to be
22 years old im going for 50 more
but its not easy
all this saltwater makes me queasy
its not fair
im low then im high
but i wanna feel alright all the time
not fine one day then totally not okay
who's pulling these strings?
im calling foul play
why cant i be steady
i try to be steady
but im stuck with you
and youre stuck with me
its how itll be for eternity
i got to love the man in the mirror
and i just hope he loves me back too
