lyrics

let go of these morbid obsessions
every thought feels like a confession
she said, she said, she said:
“if i get one life, gonna do what i want
if i get one life, i’m gonna do what i want”

she was a mess
she was a mess at seventeen
running down a dream
stuck in this endless empty feeling

give it a rest
give it a rest chasing the girls around
her lonely heart was a ghost town
they said “son, you better settle down”

and let go of these morbid obsessions
every thought feels like a confession
she said, she said, she said:
“if i get one life, gonna do what i want
if i get one life, i’m gonna do what i want”

now in come the drugs
in come the drugs and the booze
razors, wrists, and self abuse
trapped like a rat, got nothing left to lose

she wanted a dress
like all the other girls
a head full of curls
they said “son, you can’t always get what you want in this world”

let go of these morbid obsessions
every thought feels like a confession
she said, she said, she said:
“if i get one life, gonna do what i want
if i get one life, i’m gonna do what i want”

woah, oh
a heart of glass, a head of stone
woah, oh
a head of stone

let go of these morbid obsessions
every thought feels like a confession
she said, she said, she said:
“if i get one life, gonna do what i want
if i get one life, i’m gonna do what i want
i’m gonna do what i want
if i get one life, i’m gonna do what i want.”
