[Verse 1]
I grew up in a small house
Near a cemetery
Could hear them howl
As they lower the ones they love in the ground
I pulled out my own baby teeth
The pain never seemed to bother me
I made friends with the kids down the street
I better go, it's getting late
I've been outside all day
I'ma walk home, work out what I'll say
[Chorus]
And I still lose it every now and then
In an interview, or a photoshoot
I could be halfway through a show
And it all comes creeping in
And I've sacrificed all my friends
Birthdays, weddings, everything
And it's heartbreaking but this is my dream
And I did it all without a phone call
Or a Christmas card, you have no heart
This is my way of saying don't start
[Verse 2]
You should see the shows I play
And hear them sing the words I say
I wonder sometimes if you are in the crowd
'Cause I needed help, I needed love
I needed care, I needed a hug
I needed praise, I needed time with you
And it plays on my mind, all the time, all the time
I wanna love you but I need you to try
I grew up in a small house
Near a cemetery
Could hear them howl
As they lower the ones they love in the ground
I pulled out my own baby teeth
The pain never seemed to bother me
I made friends with the kids down the street
I better go, it's getting late
I've been outside all day
I'ma walk home, work out what I'll say
[Chorus]
And I still lose it every now and then
In an interview, or a photoshoot
I could be halfway through a show
And it all comes creeping in
And I've sacrificed all my friends
Birthdays, weddings, everything
And it's heartbreaking but this is my dream
And I did it all without a phone call
Or a Christmas card, you have no heart
This is my way of saying don't start
[Verse 2]
You should see the shows I play
And hear them sing the words I say
I wonder sometimes if you are in the crowd
'Cause I needed help, I needed love
I needed care, I needed a hug
I needed praise, I needed time with you
And it plays on my mind, all the time, all the time
I wanna love you but I need you to try
