Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hey, I heard it from the state
They told me you were never gonna let me get away
And If you took me fishing, you would never give me bait
I had to get away, I had to get away, ay, ay
Then you hurt, you try to compensate
For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate
You showed me all your letters that I should've confiscated
Yeah, both of my eyes were wounded, and I had to get away
[Verse 2]
Talking to ears that have been deaf
For as long as I can remember
A self-medicated handicap, so I speak to myself
And I try to hard to get his stupid deaf ear to hear
That I've be come illiterate, I've become dumb
You hear me, you hear me, hear me?
[Verse 3]
When I come through, you were dark blue
And I saved you from your darker days
Born to take care of you
Or I thought so, maybe it was just a phase
[Verse 4]
Hey, I heard it from the state
They told me you were never gonna let me get away
And If you took me fishing, you would never give me bait
I had to get away, I had to get away, I had to get
Hey, you try to compensate
For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate
You showed me all your letters that I should've confiscated
Yeah, both of my eyes were wounded, and I had to get away
[Verse 5]
Shot down by a guy I never wanted to kiss
Now I can heard the signing of his ringing triumphing
And I'm chugging along in a train
And I'm headed the wrong way, and I'm a trainwreck
And my heart goes beat, beat, beat to the music of this sad, same song
It's quite depressing
There is not fixing to the problem when you're talking to an idiot
[Verse 6]
When I come through, you were dark blue
And I saved you from your darker days
Born to take care of you
Or I thought so, maybe it was just a phase
Baby, only maybe
Just a dreamer, but I soon found out
That the train tracks were behind me
Tried to warn me, both of my ears went out
[Verse 7]
Both of my ears went out, out, out
Both of my ears went out, out
Both of my ears went out, out, out
[Verse 8]
When I come through, you were dark blue
And I saved you from your darker days
Born to take care of you
Or I thought so, maybe it was just a phase
[Verse 9]
Hey, I heard it from the state
They told me you were never gonna let me get away
And If you took me fishing, you would never give me bait
I had to get away, I had to get away, I had to get
Hey, you try to compensate
For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate
You showed me all your letters that I should've confiscated
Yeah, both of my eyes were wounded, and I had to get away
