Testo They may not mean to (but they do) Neck Deep

They may not mean to (but they do)

Godspeed little sinner
Dragged me to church to eat Jesus Christ
I can be a little pessimistic, I can be a little critical sometimes
Can't sleep so you whisper
Now I see through all those little lies
But I didn't know better
But now I get it, I'm sorry I made you cry

Those times the cops came by
Mom, I tried
(Mom, I tried)

They fuck you up, your parents do
They may not mean to but they do
They may not mean to but they do
So, they fuck you up, your parents do
They may not mean to but they do
They may not mean to but they do

Didn't raise no quitter
I'm still hooked and I think it'll kill me too
Caught myself in the mirror and for a second
I'd swear that it was you
Saw me, Mister Sinner
Didn't miss one game the entire time
Didn't care about the winner
Doesn't matter as long as you got your pride

I know we fight
I know they were right
They were right

They fuck you up, your parents do
They may not mean to but they do
They may not mean to but they do
So, they fuck you up, your parents do
As I say that, as I do
"When I was your age, I was just like you"

So, did you love too much?
Was it not enough?
You know they're not to blame
Because you're all fucked up

Those kids will be the death of you
They were so sweet but then they grew
But now they're fucked up just like you
Go!

They fuck you up, your parents do
(They fuck you up, they fuck you up)
They may not mean to but they do
They may not mean to but they do
So, they fuck you up, your parents do
(They fuck you up, they fuck you up)
As I say that, as I do
But now they're fucked up just like you
