his lips turned cold
fuck he’s getting old
he always wondered if he’s born to fail
the bus is late
he is full of hate
his cigarre extinguished by the hard rain
he sat down in the last row
kids screaming with no flow
his nerves are weak he got dry lips
he didn’t get the job
at the candy shop
because he's fully tattoed with anchors and ships
how does it look on the inside
when you’re the black sheep my friend
how does it look on the inside
you’ve got to swallow it all again
he's used to bad luck
but his neighbours suck
the boys next door stole his replacement key
they call the 911
each time he hears a cash-song
while his chilling on the balcony
he lost all hope
a lotta lead in his dope
katy left him for a skaterboy
his only friends jim beam
no american dream
but a life that run out of joy
how does it look on the inside
when you’re the black sheep my friend
how does it look on the inside
you’ve got to swallow it all again
yeah it feels good on the inside
when you don’t have a doubt
pretty good on the inside
when you stand your ground
yeah it feels great on the inside
when you sing songs out loud
should feel great on the inside
at the moment you hear that sound
the truth is baby and now you know
we all were born to fail
so i toast on life which keeps dragging me down and say
it will be okay!
how does it look on the inside
when you’re the black sheep my friend
how does it look on the inside
you’ve got to swallow it all again
yeah it feels great on the inside while i swallow it all again
