Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Anyone can tell you there's no more road to ride

Everyone will tell you there's no place to hide

There's no laws or rules to unchain your life

[Verse 2]

But the ones who didn't make it, the ones who couldn't take it

So glad we made it out alive

Everyone loves the fun, everyone comes by

In the wind I crunch, I want to die

[Verse 3]

They can give me pills or let me drink my fill

The heart wants to explode far away where nobody knows

[Chorus]

Do you believe she said that?

Do you believe she said that?

I said, "I hate myself and I want to die"

[Verse 4]

Half of it is innocent, the other half is wise

The whole damn thing makes no sense

I wish I could tell you a lie

[Verse 5]

Hey, come here

Let me whisper in your ear

I hate myself and I want to die

[Chorus]

Do you believe she said that?

Can you believe she repeated that?

I said, "I hate me, myself and I"

Said, "I hate myself and I want to die"
