Lyrics and translation
Original
I'm old, I'm young
I burnt my tongue
But isn't that obvious?
It's all so obvious
You try to try, you're out of time
But isn't that obvious?
You are so obvious
I'm holding this all wrong
Between my finger and my thumb
But I don't mind
I just want to get high
Yeah, I cut through life
With the back of the knife
You say it's cool
Was good at school
But now it's up to me
I'm floating endlessly
I'm doing it all wrong
I'm burning out 'til I'm gone
Yeah, I don't mind
I just wanted to try
Yeah, I cut through life
With the back of the knife
Yeah, I don't mind
I just wanted to try
Because I cut through life
With the back of the knife
