Hello Goodbye

I never knew, it'd be hard to tell you
that I love you, matter of fact feelin so taboo, like a tattoo,
hidden on my sleeve when I sleep
and I dream of a scene as it seems

when I got home from school, and feelin so uncool,
cuz the rest of my friends, their parents weren't on glue,
when they got a good grade on their paper
I would tell em see you later,

lasers shooting out the glasses of my cyclops
Never cry, they're just traces from my eyedrops
I wanna be everything that you wanted
Straight A student I'm sorry I never done it

but the grades never meant anything real to me
just a part of me reaching out with L.O.V.E
but i fall short of this, the language we speak
can we speak a different language,
Cambridge, Top of Columbia Stanford just a couple dialects
but i'm feelin tired yes, taking all these side tests

can we take a rest and have a conversation
i just want to tell you everything i'm facing

you wanna consume it, wanted to know me
said you went through me, won't you undo me
and i wanna know know know know know
wanna know know know know know

i wanna get to you, wanted to know you
instead i went right through, what am i to do
cuz i wanna know know know know know
wanna know know know know know

cuz i never really wanted to go, i just wind up somehow losing control
would you come back baby tell me once more
i'm sorry i was missing but i wanted to know

i never dreamed it'd be hard to be seen as a preteen you would work harder than machines
and it isn't what it seems, cuz i know it's out of love
but i'm feelin kinda lost, and the distance is enough

for me to style, for me to write,
for me to tell you that i'm missing you at night
and the moments that i have, and the way i raise my children
will be everything i learned staring at a television

i just wanna play catch, throw a long ball
have a father figure to teach me to love god
and a mom that would hold me when everything seems wrong
god i'm barely five foot and taking it all alone

but it's cool, i understand
i'm just sharing, not to offer you demands, i would help you if i can if you smiled a little bit
every time we take a picture i would save it as a kid
and i'm tired of the acting, gashing,
there's a problem that is happening, blastin
and i wanna fix this so this is my one shot

mama papa love you i miss you a whole lot

you wanna consume it, wanted to know me
instead you went through me, would you undo me
and i wanna know know know know know
wanna know know know know know

i wanna get to you, wanted to know you
instead i went right through, what am i to do
cuz i wanna know know know know know
wanna know know know know know

you wanna get to me, wanted to know me
instead you went through me, would you undo me
and i wanna know know know know know
wanna know know know know know

i wanna get to you, wanted to know you
instead i went right through, what am i to do
cuz i wanna know know know know know...
