We Always Shrink
Why is the world like this
Can't you see what one day you'll miss
No because we are out getting high
But on the inside we just want to die
We go out with a friend
But we are too insecure to let them in
We steal and cheat
But we are afraid to get punished and beat
We try to feel great
But we are told we are a mistake
Yelling is all we hear
Because family value decided to disappear
We always shrink
Because on the inside we care what others think
