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