[Verse 1]
I cried while I did the dishes
While I wished that I was somebody's son
There's a taste of metal in my mouth
Remindin' me that I'm still young
[Verse 2]
I fell for a girl who looked just like me
I was burnin' for blisters and my blue stained teeth
Am I angry or are you just tired
Of seein' yourself through these eyes?
[Chorus]
I was tryin' to make you happy
I guess it never worked out
Always tryin' to make you happy
I guess it never worked out
[Verse 3]
I know that you didn't mean it
It doesn't mean that it didn't hurt
I wished my arms were leaner
Or that I felt good wearin' a skirt
[Bridge]
Something unspoken
I guess it never worked out
Means you know what it's like
I guess it never worked out
Something unspoken
I guess it never worked out
Means you know what it's like, when
[Chorus]
And I was tryin' to make you happy
I guess it never worked out
I'm always tryin' to make you happy
I guess it never works
[Post-Chorus]
I guess it never works
I guess it never works
I guess it never works
I guess it never works
[Verse 4]
Is it a family thing? ([?])
Is it me bein' me? ([?])
Is it a family thing? ([?])
Is it me bein' me? ([?])
[Chorus]
And I was tryin' to make you happy
I guess it never works
