"Cherry" lyrics
And I can't help myself
'Cause I've been lost and I've been found
Been the one that you kicked around
Say I failed you, you won't say how
Then build me up to tear me down
All my life, you showed no love
I can't wait 'til I grow up
So I can leave and finally be free to learn to love someone
You always said that I'd be nothin,' I can't wait to prove you right
I try to wait 'til I felt somethin,' but I can't wait for my whole life
And all my friends are growin' thin, withdrawals creepin' in again
Tried so hard to place my piece into this puzzle I don't fit
But I'm aware that I'll leave you in pieces, please, it's all too much
And I don't mind if you leave me in pieces, I just can't keep up
Ooh-oh-oh
You don't know me I'm glad that you don't
You think I'll forgive you, I know that I won't
If I have a kid then you'll never meet them even if it's your last damn wish on earth
I hope that it hurts if you ever think 'bout the kids you abandoned
The pain that you bring
And I don't give a fuck about what you think
'Cause I'm just your son, I'm not your family
You knew my name, you knew my home
It's been twenty Goddamn years alone
Broke my faith, took my dad
How can you lose what you don't have?
Hate myself, hate you more
You're my ceilin', you're my floor
Broke my back, clipped my wings
'Cause I can't escape from my own genes
But I'm aware that I'll leave you in pieces, please, it's all too much (It's all too much)
And I don't mind if you leave me in pieces, I just can't keep up (I just can't keep up)
But I have a dream where I'm flyin' away off to a place unseen
And I have a hope that someone will show up who knows how to rescue me
They're gonna know my name
The way that you never knew my name
And I'm gonna change, I can't wait for the day I know who I want to be
But I'm aware that I'll leave you in pieces, please, it's all too much (It's all too much)
And I don't mind if you leave me in pieces, I just can't keep up (I just can't keep up)
'Cause I've been lost and I've been found
Been the one that you kicked around
Say I failed you, you won't say how
Then build me up to tear me down
All my life, you showed no love
I can't wait 'til I grow up
So I can leave and finally be free to learn to love someone
You always said that I'd be nothin,' I can't wait to prove you right
I try to wait 'til I felt somethin,' but I can't wait for my whole life
And all my friends are growin' thin, withdrawals creepin' in again
Tried so hard to place my piece into this puzzle I don't fit
But I'm aware that I'll leave you in pieces, please, it's all too much
And I don't mind if you leave me in pieces, I just can't keep up
Ooh-oh-oh
You don't know me I'm glad that you don't
You think I'll forgive you, I know that I won't
If I have a kid then you'll never meet them even if it's your last damn wish on earth
I hope that it hurts if you ever think 'bout the kids you abandoned
The pain that you bring
And I don't give a fuck about what you think
'Cause I'm just your son, I'm not your family
You knew my name, you knew my home
It's been twenty Goddamn years alone

But I'm aware that I'll leave you in pieces, please, it's all too much (It's all too much)

And I don't mind if you leave me in pieces, I just can't keep up (I just can't keep up)
