I'm just nine years old
And I'm always told
“Be a good boy, son
And don't have too much fun.”
One day, they'll put me away
And they'll tell me to stay
I think I need a way out
I'm way out
Then we're back in school
We follow teachers' rules
And when I play along
I don't like who I become
One day, they'll put you away
And they'll tell you to stay
I think you need a way out
To stay out
Don't say it
Don't say it
Don't say the thing that I don't like
('Cause I think I'll die)
I was never the same
I was never the same
(Have they always loved you?)
I was never the same
One day, they'll try to put us away
And they'll tell us to stay
And we need a way out
We're so far out
Don't say it
Don't say it
Don't say the thing that I don't like
('Cause I think I'll die)
We were never the same
We were never the same
We were never the same
Maybe it's better
