Short Listed [To All My Friends] Lyrics

[Hook]
To all my friends, I wish y'all well
To all my foes, please do drop dead
To all my friends...

[Verse]
I don't want change, I just want the notes
I don't want your name, I just wanna go
I don't need the 'zade but the glucose helps me cope
When I'm tired in the day cos in the night I'm awoke

And I'm, nice when spoke to but you likely won't
Cos I'm slightly strange and I'm some-what broke

And I'm some-what down, but never out, check my throat
Still breathing, being sick, like vomit, never choke


[Verse]
They let you reap what you sew, but only if you stitch it
They tell you be who you are, but only when you're bigger
Just now you've got to be who they pictured when they saw you
Like they auctioned off your voice, now you're turned down in volumes
In my lifetime I never thought I'd hear my voice replayed
Now I hear my voice echoed, each day that it's relayed

Over waves of arms, thrown towards the heavens stretching
Labelled devils when we meddle, your voice is a weapon
Gear up for war, it's time to give your speech with clarity
Fear is for the fickle who won't rise through the anarchy
[Verse]
The me that you see ain't the me that you meet
It's the me that repeats everything that I speak

It's the me that receives all the feedback that feeds
The ego deep in me that keeps me obese
In the head
, I pretend that I'm deaf to the jests
But the breath that you spent to tell me I'm dread
-ful is enough to stir me up
Cos yeah, I'm such an awful waste of stuff

But face to face those things may change
I'm no longer enraged, I'm sane
I might be plain, some say that I'm boring
But we'll be best friends again the day that I'm touring
I remember the start, I remember the finish
I recall the story and when you got in it
Don't tell me incorrect and let respect diminish
Cos I'll then set you with the rest who didn't
Get in it at the start, the retards who seemed hard
But aren't like weak arms with sleek garms and self harm
Was the least of my struggle so don't relate there
See life is a game but players never play fair
So this is my thanks but it's also a threat
See I protect my heart, my neck and my head
And if I feel like something you said don't add up
Don't blame me if you feel how I felt: abandoned

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
