My Thing
I was eating chocolate and you were sniffing cocaine
And one of us was as high as it can be
Your good is tainted with your old bad
But I'm the one shedding skin
And you're voting for the right
to keep on catching your own tail
Come on, let's have a bath
I'll add rosemary
I'm supposed to be born in a month
I looked in the sky, it was full of friends
This time I'm ready to cut my leg
if it stops me from flying
I was just 11 at the time
So you're doing it but with a taint of shame
Come on, let's have a bath
I'll add rosemary
I'm supposed to be born in a month
It was a glorious moment
But you came to me crying
And what you did to me is now my thing
So they say
