I used to think life was all a game of sink or swim

I'd follow the rules like everyone my age I guess

Raising my hand only proved that I was less a man

I used to think life was all a game of sink or swim

I'd follow the rules like everyone my age I guess

Raising my hand only proved that I was less a man

Speaking in turn only proved that I would end up last

Ooh, everything I know is wrong

Ooh, should have known it all along

Gonna live too fast gonna burn my cash

I'll piss my days away

Yeah, I'll drink too much till I'm out of touch

But I'm not quite down the drain

Ooh, don't care if you're listening

You'll still hear me when I scream

My bones have grown and all the thrills I've had since seventeen

Never seem to go

I'm fighting for the best of me

So god bless the soul of anyone who gets me off this train

Yeah f**k what I know

I'm ready to be dumb again

You'll still hear me when I scream

Your name
