Verse 1:
I don't like my hair
I don't like my teeth
I can't stand the way that I smile
My weight's up and down
My bank's empty now
And I'm basically just a child
I'm terrible at not believing
That everyone I love will leave me
I always sabotage
Everything's a mirage
I'm terrified of all these feelings
Pre-hook:
But with you I wanna be
The illusion who you see
Hook:
I'm just a boy
Tryin to hold on to what's left of me
I'm not a man
I'm just doing the best I can
A Million mistakes
I make every day
Can't seem to turn around
Without another bridge in flames
Wonder if I've got what it takes
Cuz I'm just a boy
Verse 2:
Playing games
Waking up late
Wondering if I should grow up
I guess you could say
It's too late to change
That I should be more than enough
I'm terrible at just believing
That anything I do has meaning
A tiny spec of dust
In a cloud full of us
I can't even begin to see me
Pre-hook:
But with you I'll try to be
The illusion who you see
Hook:
I'm just a boy
Tryin to hold on to what's left of me
Don't feel like a man
I'm just doing the best I can
A Million mistakes
I make every day
Can't seem to turn around
Without another bridge in flames
Wonder if I've got what it takes
Or if I'm just a boy
