[Verse 1]
One day you set my sights
Set 'em for the sky
Believed in me and what I could be
What a waste of time

[Pre-Chorus]
Couldn't afford the shoes
I couldn't be like you
I didn't choose this life
You said it in front of me
I want an apology or I'll punch out your lights

[Chorus]
Same old story
And yeah, a little bit boring, yeah
Tried to conform me
And now you're starting to worry, yeah

[Verse 2]
Mindless games that you would play
Now play in my mind
Points of views that you would use
Are as useless as your life, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Who am I anyway?
A victim of child's play
One step from suicide
Abundance of fortitude, monstrous attitude, is all
That's kept me alive, yeah
[Chorus]
Same old story
And yeah, a little bit boring, yeah
Tried to conform me
And now you're starting to worry, yeah

[Verse 3]
Hey what, say what, tell me what you want
I don't really give a damn
No way, not today, it doesn't matter anyway
Too late, you should have thought about it then! Yeah!

[Chorus]
Same old story
And yeah, a little bit boring, yeah
Tried to conform me
And now you're starting to worry, yeah

Tried to conform me

[Verse 4]
Look down, turn around
Get up - knocked you back down
Wanna play? Well, let's play then
"Stop" - why, you gonna cry?
Maybe you just ought to die?
Man, this ain't about the pretend!
