Kids (Don't End Up Like Me)

(album: Community Spirit - 2021)

Call up my dad 'cause I'm a failure
Anything that I can do, I'll just do it later
Kids, don't you end up like me
Tell the world that I'm going down
Seven feet under, I won't make a sound
I need to find my way in life

Anything I have just runs and goes
And when I say I shine I barely glow
I don't know when I'm meant to go away

It's a shame, it's a shame
You don't really wanna know my name
Who's to blame? Who's to blame?
You don't really wanna know my name
(Know my name)

Tell all your friends that you made a mistake
One year forward, I'm probably late
But I need to feel your hands in mine
I know I gave off the wrong impression
But trust me, darling, I've learnt my lesson
I want to walk with you in the sand

Anything I have just runs and goes
And when I say I shine I barely glow
I don't know when I'm meant to go away

It's a shame, it's a shame
You don't really wanna know my name
Who's to blame? Who's to blame?
You don't really wanna know my name (Know my name)

I don't wanna drive with the wind in my hair
I don't wanna live without a care, I
I wanna walk the in-between
The time for empathy has long gone
But you'll probably find it when you listen to this song
I don't know what's right and what is wrong

Hear me out, hear me out
You don't really wanna know my name
Who's to blame? Who's to blame?
You don't really wanna know my name
It's a shame, it's such a shame
That you don't really wanna know my name
Know my name, know my name (Know my name)
You don't really wanna know my name
