I am a first born son
Constantly reminded of the things I've fucked up
And I may scream for better things
But when I'm done I hang my head low
Because the sobering fact that I've gone nowhere
Makes me sick, sick to my stomach
Hang my head
Just like my hopes and dreams
Let go
Of everything I wanted to be
So I've lived my life against your hopes and ideals
That way I could never fail you
What else have I got?
Just a one trick pony
And you can see right through me
Hang my head
Just like my hopes and dreams
Let go
Of everything I wanted to be
I've made my mother cry a million tears
Fought with my father for all these years
What does this make me?
Violent and shaky
It's getting lonely, It's getting lonely
