Well, I'm staring at unfamiliar ceiling
And I should leave
Cause everybody here is tripping some new drug
Except for me
(Why?)
Cause I don't have the money
And I have been thinking about letting my hair grow
I have been thinking about cutting it short
I have been thinking about dying it yellow
But I don't think I have the bone structure or wardrobe to support
That type of look
[Chorus]
And I will tattoo my poems all over my body
They won't know who I was before
And I will cut off my fingers, no ID to find me
When I am washed up on the New Jersey shore
The New Jersey shore
[Verse 2]
Talk to myself too much, too often
Trying hard to figure out
Why the feelings that lie in my stomach are always pushing for my mouth
So I will learn to sleep on my chest
And I will learn to let things go
And I will learn to come to terms with the things that I will never know
I'll never know
I'll never know
[Chorus]
And I will tattoo my poems all over my body
They won't know who I was before
And I will cut off my fingers, no ID to find me
When I am washed up on the New Jersey shore
The New Jersey..
[Bridge]
And I will take what I can get
I'll take what I am given
But we both know that I'll need more
X4
So much more
So much more
Raagh!
[Chorus]
And I will tattoo my poems all over my body
They won't know who I was before
And I will cut off my fingers, no ID to find me
When I am washed up on the New Jersey shore
The New Jersey shore
