lyrics

I could count it all on one hand
From talking trash to their nervous laugh
We all die with a hole in our heart, begging for forgiveness:
"It should have never happened, I should have never said that"

When I was ten, I was throwing rocks at cars
Sometimes one can really show their age
And now I drain rivers just to catch a few fish
I still feel the same way, I feel like a kid

Daddy left and mommy worked, I was raised by no one
Split by belief, and classed by wealth
Everyone in this world will try to sell you something, or push you aside
They'll try to keep you quiet, don't let 'em

You're gonna look for the answers, and you won't find it
Take it from me, you're gonna do the wrong thing
You'll probably be happy, and never know it
So go out swinging, or go out holding secrets

Am I making myself clear?
You gotta go out swinging
Am I making myself clear?
Am I getting through?
You gotta go out swinging
Am I getting through to you?
Don't be like me
Don't go holding secrets
