I've been thinking about the wrong things
Wishing that somebody would take me away
I never felt like I belonged but here I am
I used to give my blood, sweat, and tears
But now, I'm not wasting a single year
I'm going to take my time, don't cross the line
Call me out but we all know what's a lie
You lie!
I used to be so young
I would never bite my tongue
Should I regret it for life?
Or should I have the best time?
I used to scream
But after vocal surgery
I learned what it was
So I'm going to have the best time!
I once was so sad I couldn't leave
My bedroom afraid of everything
But now I don't have to cry about it
I once wanted to end something beautiful
But now I see that I used to be defined
But now I'm going to strive to live in the divine
I don't know who you think you are anyway
I don't care what you say
I used to never be me
Time is just the invention of imagination
Because you're never your age
So continue to be who you were born to be
I used to scream
But after vocal surgery
I learned who I really wanted to be
So I'm going to have the best time!
I'm definitely going to offend you
Because I'm not somebody who you want
I'm definitely going to offend you
Because you can't be who you really are
And I might offend you with everything
Because I'm no longer afraid
I used to be so afraid
But now I'm not a robot to this age
I'm never going to fit in, not even to this day
So I'm going to continue who I am going to be
I used to scream
But after vocal surgery
Because you're not bigger than me
So I'm going to have the best time!
