Well, I guess by the blood stain of your lips And the wander of your fingertips I should prove true to my emptiness And stay here Well, I'm just a kid of ill repute But the skin I wear is my only suit And you, you're just a substitute For the one that I hold dear You know, you could be anyone God forgive my tasteless tongue I never should have been set free I claw my eyes, I skin my face Beg somehow to be replaced That's how we deal with boys like me Well, I guess for this world so sick with loss And your service is so free of cost I should climb down off my rugged cross And lay with you But you know, by now it's half past late And I only came here for escape You you're just my next mistake Like me to you You know, you could be anyone God forgive your unborn sons I hope they don't end up like me I drag my mind through streets of shame Lay myself forgive the game That's how we deal with boys like me But despite what you've been told I once had a soul Left somewhere behind A former friend of mine And I hate to speak so free But you mean nothing to me So if the street lights they shine bright I?ll get home tonight I guess by the dim light in your eyes And that to you all things come as a surprise I should set the steel trap of your thighs And dive right in But to you I'm just a confused child Insecure or in denial Go raise your robes, go have your trial I?ll let you win You know, I could be anyone God forgive what I should've done A thoughts enough to guilty be Yes, I guess I made this bed But I?ll take the sidewalk instead That's how we deal with boys like me But despite what you've been told I once had a soul Left somewhere behind A former friend of mine And I hate to sound so true But I mean nothing to you So, if the street lights they shine bright I?ll be home tonight
