[Verse 1]

I saw something that looked pretty to me

Some buildings that were falling apart

Someday we'll all fall into the sea

There's sails on my back

They're nailed through my heart

[Chorus]

Goodbye Vele

'Cause sometimes ugly's pretty

Sometimes I throw bricks

Sometimes they hit me

I can't help myself Scampia

Drown in the pool, I'm falling apart

I can't help myself, Julia

I can't help you either

And it's breaking my heart

[Verse 2]

Lay me out, I need somewhere to dry

There's blood on my pants

There's water in my eyes

There's an apple in my mouth

Because I don't need to breathe

Hit a bullseye and I'm back on my knees

[Chorus]

Goodbye Vele

'Cause sometimes ugly's pretty

Sometimes I throw bricks

Sometimes they hit me

I can't help myself Scampia

Drown in the pool, I'm falling apart

I can't help myself, Julia

I can't help you either

And it's breaking my heart
