Did you say, "It'd never happen to me."
And then you say in all sincerity,
"I want out."
"I want out."
They said, "Hey boy, now don't you touch that cocaine."
I'm such a sucker, such a sucker for pain
I wanted out
I want oooooout
I want to paint a picture
Of what life can be
I look in the mirror
It's not what I see
I said, "Hey mama, don't you take all them pills.
Can't you see what you do to these kids? You want out."
I want out
You know that sugar used to slit on her wrists
Well ain't that something man, well we were just kids
She wanted out
I want out
I want to paint a picture
Of what life can be
I look in the mirror
It's not what I see.
Do do do do do do
(Repeat)
I want to paint a picture
Of what life can be
I look in the mirror
It's not what I see
Did you say, "It'd never happen to me."
And then you say in all sincerity,
"I want out."
"I want out."
They said, "Oh boy, now don't you touch that cocaine."
I'm such a sucker, such a sucker for pain
I wanted out
I want oooooout
I want to paint a picture
Of what life can be
I look in the mirror
It's not what I see
Do do do do do do
(Repeat)
