Fame And Pain by Theodore Kidd Lyrics
[Hook]
Take it back, take it back now
Take it back, take it back
Take it back, take it back now
Yeah
[Verse I]
Take it back, take it back
Always feeling like I’ve been under attack
Tell me, how could I be normal
After everything I’ve gone through
I no longer try to fit in
Cause when I do I never win
And when I fit in I just feel
Like I’m cheating myself
So here we go
We’re on a roll
Self-esteem is at an all-time low
I was doomed from the beginning
Now I’m winning all the time
I have no family
No blood relativity
Yeah, but I got you
Tell me that I’ll always have you
[Pre-Chorus]
Breaking down again
At the end of the road
Everyday is the same
It’s so lame, it’s getting old
I miss the good old days when
Videogames were what I played
But now it’s life
And I hate to behave
[Chorus]
Don’t come around telling me how to live my life
I don’t live for anyone else, and that just seems right
Look ma we made it
But we broke everything
In the end was it really worth it
For some fame and pain
I don’t know
Take it back, take it back now
[Verse II]
Two psych wards later, and I’m still in the fight
Four hundred Lexapro and I'm still not right
Eight years of therapy and I can't see the light
I’m trapped in the dark, burning up my heart
But I’ve made it far from the start
At least I have this song to give to you
At least I stopped the things I use to do
I’m not saying she’s bad
But Mary Jane, you give rays to days
And make me see a change
And I can’t complain
[Pre-Chorus]
Breaking down again
At the end of the road
Everyday is the same
It’s so lame, it’s getting old
I miss the good old days when
Videogames were what I played
But now it’s life
And I hate to behave
[Chorus]
Don’t come around telling me how to live my life
I don’t live for anyone else, and that just seems right
Look ma we made it
But we broke everything
In the end was it really worth it
For some fame and pain
I don’t know
Take it back, take it back now
Take it back, take it back now
Take it back, take it back
Take it back, take it back now
Yeah
[Verse I]
Take it back, take it back
Always feeling like I’ve been under attack
Tell me, how could I be normal
After everything I’ve gone through
I no longer try to fit in
Cause when I do I never win
And when I fit in I just feel
Like I’m cheating myself
So here we go
We’re on a roll
Self-esteem is at an all-time low
I was doomed from the beginning
Now I’m winning all the time
I have no family
No blood relativity
Yeah, but I got you
Tell me that I’ll always have you
[Pre-Chorus]
Breaking down again
