[Verse 1]

I keep runnin'

I been searching for the person I'm becoming, strummin'

I want to be someone that can hurt me, burn me, never do me dirty

Sick of all the trauma that I had to go through early

Curse these lies, focus on your education

Play outside if you wanna live in basements

Blurry nights have turned into a blatant cry, and

[Pre-Chorus]

I could live a hundred lives

But it's got no use if I don't like who I am

When I swing through the sky

Will I save a life or will I think twice?

Nobody cares and no one knows about who I am

My friends and foes, am I right?

When I can't see my lines, will I try to hide or will I go outsidе? Yeah

[Chorus]

They think I'm terrifiеd

They don't know what it's like to be me

They don't know what's inside, yeah

They only see what's on TV

They think I'm petrified

They don't like how I like to be me

They don't know 'bout my life, yeah

They only read the magazines

[Verse 2]

I used to think that I was tough when I was younger

I bought liquor with the card, but I would stutter

Went a hundred ten miles in an hour with my brother

In the sightsee, beggin' me to stop, never sober

Was a menace 'cause I never got caught in the suburbs

Haven't been to church and I've been lyin' to my mother

I got caught drunk on daily basis with some others

Was a fool for the faces of a hundred different lovers, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]

I could live a hundred lives

But it's got no use if I don't like who I am

When I swing through the sky

Will I save a life or will I think twice?

Nobody cares and no one knows about who I am

My friends and foes, am I right?

When I can't see my lines, will I try to hide or will I go outside? Yeah

[Chorus]

They think I'm terrified

They don't know what it's like to be me

They don't know what's inside, yeah

They only see what's on TV

They think I'm petrified

They don't like how I like to be me

They don't know 'bout my life, yeah

They only read the magazines

They think I'm terrified

They don't know what it's like to be me

They don't know what's inside, yeah

They only see what's on TV

They think I'm petrified

They don't like how I like to be me

They don't know 'bout my life, yeah

They only read the magazines
