I have a heart like a diamond
I have a mouth made of lead
I have a way with my words
And when I talk they believe every word I've said
There's a shine in my smile
It blinds everyone's way
I have a way with my hands
And when I play with their heart
It turns to clay
So I pray to God
How could you give them the gift of life
Then curse me with the hands to take it away
I never asked you to move the mountain
I just want the strength to climb it and find a different way
I got a hundred pound problem that I'm leaving on the side of the road
Hit the highway and I won't go back until I'm not alone
I got a game to play if you like to lose
You can turn me on but honey I'm bad news
When you're born a shadow in everybody's mind
Beauty is just a cancer you left behind
Things would be different if I were a daughter
I dove headfirst into a pool without water to learn how to swim
I'm just a boy who lived in the basement
I got a hundred pound problem that I'm leaving on the side of the road
Hit the highway and I won't come back until I'm not alone
I got a game to play if you like to lose
You can turn me on but honey I'm bad news
When I stare into the mirror
I see all the parts I know are wrong
I can't help but wonder which side I'm really on
And when the whole world points to hopeless
I just hope it wasn't all pointless
And their burden weighs too much to carry alone
I got a hundred pound problem that I'm leaving on the side of the road
Hit the highway and I won't come back until I'm not alone
I got a game to play if you like to lose
You can turn me on but honey I'm bad, bad, bad news
