[Verse 1] [acoustic guitar strumming with palm-muted backbeat] I wrote this song when I was sixteen I added in this part for context But hold on and stay with me And keep steady for what comes next I really wish they didn't hate me It seems like everybody noticed That I am not so great see But I’m just scared to go unnoticed Last night I tried to kill myself But got distracted by a good friend I really wish I could stay focused And then maybe all this stuff could end I really wish I wasn't so dang different And I don't think this even rhymes well I really wish I didn't use the word dang But mom and dad made me afraid of hell I really wish my family loved me The way they seem to love each other I wish I thought more like my brothers I wish I had a kinder mother I'm pretty sure there's something wrong with me Am I bipolar maybe A-D-D? Other people make no sense to me Is that normal or unique to me? All my teammates hang out when I am gone They get so awkward if I try to tag along I'd really like to watch The Office too And get the references they use at school But I don't even know when it is on And I'm too busy writing sad songs 'Cause they all watch it in a happy group If they'd invite me I'd be in the loop I guess I'm rambling, it doesn't matter [Verse 2] That's the end of the song I found In a notebookwhen I unpacked it Dear me, now your note has sound I'm glad you always found a way to be distracted And it mattered, oh it mattered so and I think it's time for you to know That you are different and our son will be too You’ll both be broken but you’ll bond like glue And thanks to you We’ll know what to do, we'll know what to do I know it was hard But thanks for pulling through [acoustic guitar ends on a final strum]
