| Hey, I heard it from the state
|
| They told me you were never gonna let me get away
|
| And if you took me fishing, you would never give me bait
|
| I had to get away, I had to get away, ay-ay
|
| Hey, you try to compensate
|
| For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate
|
| You showed me all your letters that I should’ve confiscated
|
| Both of my eyes were weighted and I had to get away
|
| Talking to ears that have been deaf for as long as I can remember
|
| A self-medicated handicap, so I speak to myself
|
| And I try so hard to get his stupid deaf ears to hear
|
| That I’ve become illiterate, I’ve become dumb
|
| When I come through, you were dark blue
|
| And I saved you from your darker days
|
| Born to take care of you, or I thought so
|
| Maybe it was just a phase
|
| Hey, I heard it from the state
|
| They told me you were never gonna let me get away
|

|
| I had to get away, I had to get away, I had to get away
|
| Hey, you try to compensate
|
| For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate
|
| You showed me all your letters that I should’ve confiscated
|
| Both of my eyes were weighted, I had to get away
|
| Shot down by a guy I never wanted to kiss
|
| And I can hear the singing of his ringing triumphing
|
| And I’m chugging along in a train
|
| And I’m heading the wrong way, and I’m a trainwreck
|
| And my heart goes «Beat, beat, beat»
|
| To the music of this sad, same song
|
| It’s quite depressing
|
| There is no fixing to the problem when you’re talking to an idiot
|
| When I come through, you were dark blue
|
| And I saved you, from your darker days
|
| Born to take care of you, or I thought so
|
| Maybe it was just a phase
|
| Baby, only maybe
|
| Just a dreamer, but I soon found out
|
| That the train tracks were behind me
|
| Tried to warn me, but both of my ears went out
|
| (But then my ears went out, out, out…)
|
| When I come through, you were dark blue
|
| And I saved you, from your darker days
|
| Born to take care of you, or I thought so
|
| Maybe it was just a phase
|
| Hey, I heard it from the state
|
| They told me you were never gonna let me get away
|

|
| I had to get away, I had to get away, I had to get away
|
| Hey, you try to compensate
|
| For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate
|
| You showed me all your letters that I should’ve confiscated
|
| Both of my eyes were weighted, I had to get away |
