Lyrics
People pleaser, stargazer
Listen to your heart not that old geezer
Well-behaved, mother's daughter
Excuse me while i yawn out of boredom
Straight A's but that's the only thing that's straight
Gay as a hatter, don't even have a gender
Listens to his mother, quarrels with his brother
Texts his secret boyfriend under the bed cover
Unfamiliarized yourself with your mother tongue
Why does it still sting if you've already been numbed?
When the wild gets scary
You recoil back to your hometown's arms
But your heart doesn't love like it used to
'Cause you're not doing what you're supposed to
What would they say if they ever knew? (ooh-aah)
Would they tell or would they bury it all?
What a great evening for matricide
I have just the right chemicals to wipe off her blood
And i'm always ready if you're down
To run far far away from this town
Kiss me and push my head down
I love it when you make me cry
Picture it through the parents' eyes
The worst thing that could happen to a former golden child
Bruise my thighs and grab my throat
I love how you make me feel like I'm the only one in the world
It's better this way
It's better to be damned than be boring anyway
Disappointment runs in the blood
And I've always been a coward
This is why I'll never be a father
Breathing in the smell of the shaving cream and lavender
Bleach and just a hint of patricide
Lying beside warm hands and a smile
Leaving the window open so the cats can pass by
Young and dumb and free to be
Everything we wanna be
I'd rather die a sudden death
Than live a life like my parents' had
All men are terrible fathers
All men are terrible liars
Welcome to the club of fighters
I'll be the cigarette to your lighters
What a great evening for a metaphoric suicide
I have just the chemicals to wipe off my blood
And I'm always ready to get disowned
And run far far away from this town
Kiss me and push my head down
I love it when you make me cry
Picture it through the parents' eyes
The worst thing that could happen to a former golden child
Bruise my thighs and grab my throat
I love how you make me feel like i'm the only one in the world
It's better this way
It's better to be damned than be boring anyway
Let's go far away
Let's live another day
I don't care, just hold my hand
Kiss me and push my head down
I love it when you make me cry
Picture it through the parents' eyes
The worst thing that could happen to a former golden child
Bruise my thighs and grab my throat
I love how you make me feel like i'm the only one in the world
It's better this way
It's better to be damned than be like them anyway
