Lyrics

I'm not a bad guy So don't treat me bad if I'm feeling sad, alright? Please don't be mad if I don't smile back, alright? If I - up my words, don't think I'm absurd, alright? Alright? I'm physically exhausted Tired of my knuckles beating I'm chewing gum to pass this time of sadness Can't you see it? You're too busy seeking selfish wishes Don't care how I'm feeling You write me up and say it's love And I can't believe it Baby, can you meet me tonight in detention? I can feel your blood pressure rise, - this tension Let me crawl up into your mind, did I mention? Pretending everything's alright is detention De-de-tention De-de-tention Pretending everything's alright is (shh) The teachers don't care about me - How I feel as long as I make money-ey-ey-ey They let them do whatever they want to me They're the customer, I'm chopped meat I'm chopped meat I'm physically exhausted Tired of my knuckles beating I'm chewing gum to pass this time of sadness Can't you see it? You're too busy seeking selfish wishes Don't care how I'm feeling You write me up and say it's love And I can't believe it Baby, can you meet me tonight in detention? I can feel your blood pressure rise, - this tension Let me crawl up into your mind, did I mention? Pretending everything's alright is detention De-de-tention De-de-tention Pretending everything's alright is detention I wanna go home and you say, "Now is not the time" Being all alone in back of the classroom, ah Start calling up my phone tryna say that I've been out of line When all I ever asked was to go to the bathroom Baby, can you meet me tonight in detention? I can feel your blood pressure rise, - this tension Let me crawl up into your mind, did I mention? Pretending everything's alright is detention Tonight, I can feel your blood pressure rise Let me crawl up into your mind Pretending everything's alright (is detention)
