honey i've been sad
everything's wrong and at the same time it's bad
my heart out there's goin mad
baby it's like we're born to be damned
born to be damned
not born to be glad
i get so scared
my lifes already been had
when the sun comes up
it brightens the dust
and the light on the screen
am i even a body
honey i've been sad
[everything's wrong and at the same time it's bad
my heart out there's goin mad]
baby it's like we're born to be damned
born to be damned
not born to be glad
i get so scared
my lifes already been had
when the sun comes up
it brightens the dust
then the story becomes
what good's my lust
what good is lust
when i'm tied to my stuff
and the light on the screen
am i even a body when i'm
born to be damned
born to be damned
