I wish I didn't have to rhyme
I wish I had a better voice
that sang some better words
sounds no one's ever heard
in an order that is new
every time I sang
I wish I found some better
I wish I found some chords
 
and I care what people think
and I care what you think
all my fears would shrink
But now I'm insecure
I was told when I get older
My name's 'Blurryface'
and I care what you think
My name's 'Blurryface'
 
We're stressed out
When our momma sang us to sleep
but now we're stressed out
but now we're stressed out
When our momma sang us to sleep
to the good ol' days
Wish we could turn back time
to the good ol' days
Wish we could turn back time
 
Try to sell it
if I ever found it
to identify where it's coming from?
I'd make a candle out of it
How come I'm never able
never sell out of it
Sometimes a certain smell
I'd probably only sell one
will take me back to when I was young
 
and treehouse homes
a stone's throw from a creek
But it would remind us
'cause we have the same nose
It'd be to my brother
we all would take the latter
Out of student loans
of when nothing really mattered
we used to roam
Same clothes homegrown
 
and I care what you think
and I care what you think
My name's 'Blurryface'
My name's 'Blurryface'
 
Wish we could turn back time
When our momma sang us to sleep
but now we're stressed out
When our momma sang us to sleep
Wish we could turn back time
to the good ol' days
to the good ol' days
but now we're stressed out
 
We used to play pretend
Saying, "Wake up
but now they're laughing at our face
Used to dream of outer space
Yo
give each other different names
you need to make money"
and then we'd fly it far away
We would build a rocket ship
 
Used to dream of outer space
and then we'd fly it far away
We would build a rocket ship
you need to make money"
Yo.
Saying, "Wake up
but now they're laughing at our face
We used to play pretend
give each other different names

When our momma sang us to sleep
to the good ol' days
but now we're stressed out
When our momma sang us to sleep
but now we're stressed out
Wish we could turn back time
Wish we could turn back time
 
Used to play pretend,
We used to play pretend,
used to play pretend, bunny.
give each other different names.
We used to play pretend,
wake up, you need the money.
wake up, you need the money.
We used to play pretend,

Yo
