lyrics

Beaten up and buttoned down
Heading round to the underground
Feeling good about what I found
Fun times on the other side of town

But they don't know
No they can't know
I can be like anyone else
Because they can't read
All of the chemistry
That makes the life I lead

I don't have to make it about me
I can anything else
Tell any tell that you want to see
Keep all the bad stuff all to myself

But they don't know
No they can't know
I can be like anyone else
Because they can't read
All of the chemistry
That makes the life I lead

If someone hated me in eighth grade
I'd agree cuz I hated myself
When you hate the life they made
Pull a new one off of the shelf
