You might say someone else said it

Some worse some better then I

You might see someone taking pictures

They can't put them back and I will tell you why

Cause even when originals are dead

Something still put that idea in your head



You might hear someone else singing

This very same song

I can't slap on nasty handcuffs

Or scold like a lawyer screaming wrong wrong wrong

Cause even when the copyrights are fixed

A genuine thief has got a bottomless bag of tricks

I was born a blank baby and the world's here to fill my head

I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead

I was born a blank bay and the world's here to fill my head

I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead



You might see a painting in a studio

Might test the paint to find its wet

Start scraping down as deep as you can go

Until its just as blank as it can get

Cause even when the paint is dry

You can just erase it all by rolling back your eyes



I was born a blank bay and the world is here to fill my head

I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead

I was born a blank bay and the world is here to fill my head

I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead

Rather see me dead

See me dead



You might hear someone else singing

This very same song

I can't slap on nasty handcuffs

Or scold like a teacher screaming wrong wrong wrong

Cause all the originals are dead.



I was born a blank bay and the world is here to fill my head

I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead

I was born a blank bay and the world is here to fill my head

I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead

Rather see me dead

See me dead

You'd rather see me dead

Rather see me dead

You'd rather see me dead

You'd rather see me dead
