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