"Dead Instead"
(Paul Methric / Jamie Spaniolo)

[Intro:]
I wanna be happy
Like people in pictures
I see them back to walls
I wanna feel better
I wanna roll with myself without the help of drugs or alcohol
I wanna be so strong
Kind and friendly
With drinks only to have what to talk about
But when I come in contact
With fathers I rather just go and shut my mouth

[Chorus:]
I built these walls
To keep this things in mind
It seems these walls
They'll lock me up in my mind
I built these walls
To help with my head
It seems these walls would rather have me dead instead

[?]

I don't really care anymore
I know it sounds selfish
But what am I helping it for
No one really cares anymore
I know it sounds helpless
I know it sounds helpless

[Chorus:]
I built these walls
To keep this things in mind
It seems these walls
They'll lock me up in my mind
I built these walls
To help with my head
It seems these walls would rather have me dead instead

[Bridge:]
I wanna be happy
Like people in pictures
I see them back to walls
I wanna feel better
I wanna roll with myself without the help of drugs or alcohol
I wanna be so strong
Kind and friendly
With drinks only to have what to talk about
But when I come in contact
With fathers I rather just go and shut my mouth

[Chorus:]
I built these walls
To keep this things in mind
It seems these walls
They'll lock me up in my mind
I built these walls
To help with my head
It seems these walls would rather have me dead instead

[Outro:]
Have me dead instead
Have me dead instead
It seems these walls would rather have me dead instead
