it started like this   i was here right, standing leaning back   my deer in the headlights   look never fails but hearing all the things that you said   cut me to the core   blew me away   like i got hit with a gunshot   like a bomb dropped stabbed with a white hot knife   in the heart while all these people still aske me    why i have my grandma's sad eyes   now you know why   cos this time i didn't see it coming    couldn't stop the runing words out your mouth   they're leaving me crushed sound louder than bombs   hit harder than mack trucks on highways   knock me down now like the chump with the black eye    hit with the uppercut   it tastes like blood   and a case of ice cold pure devastation   i may never stand up again   i will never go out again, again   oh fuck if this is the end   then i just want revenge   i just want to take you down with me   i've been so mad and furious   love must be just for idiots   im shutting down, breaking down   getting out of this shit hole ghost town    cos all these people still ask me    why i have my grandma's sad eyes   i must have my grandma's sad eyes   why i have my grandma's sad eyes   time past    just like a gasp from some tiny cell inside that wont die   sending out a quit ping   like a submarine   a lost transmission   from a distant galaxy   so reach way down    in the dark to the bottom    of my rotten heart    to a place deep in my black lung   for the song i haven't sung   since i was a little brat from connecticut   when i felt so alone   against the world    picked always last   it saved me   then i will save me now, save me now   will it save me now?   it goes "universe, wrap your arms around me. make me strong so i can take on anyone"   "universe, wrap your arms around me. make me strong so i can take on anyone"   i must have my grandma's sad eyes   i must have my grandma's sad eyes   now you know why, now you know why, now you know why, now you know why   now you know
