[Verse]
Everyone I love is gonna die
And I will die as well
I think about this before I sleep
And have since I was a child

But I'm chilled by the redundancy of
Thoughts collected, but not kept
And maybe I'm still a stupid, little boy
Too weak to understand what will come
I want to find peace of mind

[Pre-Refrain]
And oh, I want to be a baby again
Oh, I want pure thoughts in my head
Oh, I want to be a baby again
Oh, I want pure thoughts in my head
[Refrain]
Oh, I want to be a baby again
Oh, I want to forget
Oh, I want to be a baby again
Oh, I want pure thoughts in my head
Oh, I want to be a baby again
Oh, I want to forget
Oh, I want to be a baby again
Oh, I want pure thoughts in my head
Oh, I want to be a baby again
Oh, I want to forget
[Outro]
Everyone I love is gonna die
And I will die as well
I think about this before I sleep
And have since I was a child
