  • Coming out of my shell again, no one's there. let's pretend to
    See a girl and a boy standing next to me.
    And at this party I'll pretend, for a moment I just might have friends.
    The chimes of them dancing to break free,
    I've got them chained up loose so I can fit in.

    I said be silent, no one can hear you,
    You feel like I did when no one comes near you.
    Cause they think that you're weird and you're stained,
    Like a carpet, the carpet your mom ruined making you pay.

    What did I do to deserve this?
    I forget that it's all part of my imagination.
    I could actually pick and choose my loose ends,
    And tie a knot, but all I do is,
    Run and hide, it'll get ya boy.
    Run and hide, I was born unaware
    That my whole life would be a war, so I battle myself until I
    Run and hide, it'll get ya boy.

    Stupid is as stupid does, more like an off.
    Spring of stupid is and always will be mad at luck,
    But I just don't have it in my blood, blood runs deep,
    When you're growing up with blood dripping from your ugly mug.
    Cause Papa don't like you like Mama does, so give it up,
    For the guardian angel dust, sniff it up.
    Rub a little dirt in it boy and bare with me,
    Just take a lead pipe into my kidney.

    It's such a problem when people come near you,
    It seems ironic that most people fear you.
    What a shame that you feel so insane,
    But the truth of the matter's your shadow is cold and afraid.

    Did I fail to mention, it's all part of my imagination?
    I could actually pick and choose my loose ends,
    And tie a knot, but all I do is,
    Run and hide, it'll get ya boy.
    Run and hide, all I need is a friend.
    My whole life has been a war, so I battle myself until I
    Run and hide.

    One after one, they'll all spin around,
    And one after one, they'll all fall down from love.
    Nobody ever gave 'em enough.

    One after one, they'll all come around,
    And one after one, they'll all fall down from love.
    Somebody's gonna give you enough,
    Somebody better give you enough. Writer/s: Adrian Rebollo, Derek Carter, Josh Manuel, Michael Bohn, Skyler Acord, Tyler Acord
