lyrics

i forgot my mamas birthday and man that shit stung
but it stung even more knowing id never forget yours, june 21st
and i'm failing my classes my mom cannot help this
and being a good son is really easy when its read on paper, bloody paper
I'm sorry i write all my songs in "E" i just need a little more creative therapy, but i know this is where my voice needs to be
If Gods got a plan for me well we all know what that means
i've been doomed to fail i've been doomed to fail we're all doomed to fail

And if i'm using God as a metaphor for my family i'll use my family as a metaphor for my life because
I pick it to the bone everyone says no but i dont care no i dont care about the words they say, even if i should sometimes
we've all got faults of our own when we make collect calls over payphones to the man you'll never love and the boy that's so i love with

But people are like dogs we're all on a leash for somebody
yeah people are like dogs we're all on a leash we're all on leash

(I DONT WANNA BE LIKE YOU DAD)
(THE LEAST I COULD DO IS CALL YOU)
(I DONT WANNA BE LIKE YOU DAD)
(BUT I GUESS I ALREADY AM)

I dont know what to say cause i never got the chance
we were doomed to fail we were doomed to fail we were doomed to fail

(i dont know what to say cause i never got the chance we were doomed to fail we were doomed to fail we were doomed to fail)
(people are like dogs we're all on a leash for somebody yeah people are like dogs were all on a leash) etc
