Lyrics 
I don't see me mad at situations, I see me turn and walk away 
I see a tattoo on my right thigh that I will probably regret one day 
Yeah, I will probably regret one day 
But now, I am happy to be bonding in a kitchen with my friends 
A spool of thread, a few more good vibes, a safety pin and a ballpoint pen 
A safety pin and a ballpoint pen 
A safety pin and a ballpoint pen 
And a ballpoint pen 

But there are answers here, they're just harder to figure out 
Since all your questions got harder to dodge and dip around 
And there is nothing wrong with my lifestyle 
No matter how many times I tell myself to breathe in, hold it, hold it, now let it out,  
now let it out 

One day I will realize I don't need this because it is just not who I am 
Until that day comes, I'll keep my eyes closed, and I will try to feel all of the effects 
Yeah, I will try to feel all of the effects 
And now I am talking way too fast and a little bit louder than I should, 
Trying to say thank you for understanding my side of the story the best that you could 
My side of the story the best that you could 
My side of the story the best that you could 
The best that you could 

But there are answers here, they're just harder to figure out 
Since all your questions got harder to dodge and dip around 
And there is nothing wrong with your lifestyle 
No matter how many times they tell themselves just breathe in, hold it, hold it, now let  
it out 

And this is how the cool boyfriend sits in the passenger seat of his girlfriend's car 
He's lookin' at me, I wish the light would turn green, set me free, oh set me free, oh  
set me 
Teach my rolling veins where there's a will, there is a way 
Just cut me open, let me drain, oh let me drain, oh let me drain, oh let me 

I'll move to Florida, and I'll buy a brand new pick-up truck 
And I'll tint all the windows including the driver's side 
Now you can't see me, so you can't touch me 
When I sit at the red light and watch your boyfriend wonder if I'm inside 
If I am dead inside
