lyrics

Don't get too bold
Broken record
Don't think
How much are you worth?
Family always comes first
Calm down

Raise your head
Look at the walls instead

Sympathy never works
Like talking backwards
Know this

Things turn cold
But were we ever told?

I wish I could become someone
Then I could safely travel home
I won't have to hide my shame
I won't have to suffocate

Living with my family
I could be comfortable at home
Learning to drive again
I could be just like you

Seeing all of my friends again
I could be confident back home
Comparing new tattoos
Look how mature we are

I could get a job again
Working for money back at home
Save up for my first car
I could be just like you
