Shove yourself in a smaller space
Lift your head when you're saying grace
Hide away from everybody else
I've always been scared of being helped
So I thought I could do it on my own

Take in the smell of the salty rain
Take one more sip of your white champagne
Listen to everyone talk about everyone
And you just sit there pretend like you're having fun

I'm a fucked up child growing up too fast
In the city of dreams
Chasing in black
With cocaine in my hair and some buds out back
Pretending to love me, pretending to love me

Hop into a crowded train (train, train, train, train)
And take it to an unknown place (place, place, place)
I'm terrified of calling him but he doesn't answer anyway so I try
And do it on my own (my own, own, own)

The smell of smoke in the city lights (lights, lights, lights, lights)
The lights are off but they seem bright (bright, bright, bright)
I hear the voices you put in my head (my head, head, head)
They sing me to sleep every night before bed

I'm a fucked up child growing up too fast
In the city of dreams
Chasing in black
With cocaine in my hair and some buds out back
Pretending to love me, pretending to love me

I'm a fucked up child growing up too fast
In the city of dreams
Chasing in black
With cocaine in my hair and some buds out back
Pretending to love me, pretending to love me
