Rotten Apples
Took a long trip to try to get it right
They heard the crickets singing in the trees
And the slow parade
Of the whole thing coming down
City lights were fireflys
From the hill on the edge of town
I know that you had to change and
At the time I didn't blame you
I just sort of took it personal
I think you like the taste of sugar coated rotten apples
I think I look funny with that hat on
People say the strangest things in the name of self defense
I need your blood in my arms so I cut off all my limbs
Right as I was changing realized I did
"Shut your mouth, you stupid boy.
You just don't understand."
So I went looking for surrender
Looking for pretenders
Waiting all the time
Had so much love that I didn't know what to do
So I wasted it (on petty crimes?)
If you want to change then you gotta grow
If you want to change then you gotta wait for it
If you gotta change then you gotta grow
If you gotta change then you gotta do it my way
People say the strangest things in the name of self defense
I need your blood in my arms so I cut off all my limbs
Right as I was changing realized I did
"Shut your mouth, you stupid boy.
You just don't understand."
I understand perfectly!
