​rotten

[Intro]
Ooh
Ooh, uh
Ooh-uh, ooh-uh-uh
Ooh-uh, ooh-uh-uh

[Verse]
Nothing has started
My self departed
Took two steps forward
But I'll take three back then
My hope disheartened
No records charted
I can't take your word
With my eardrums blackened

[Chorus]
I don't want to be rotten (Rotten)
Knowing I'll be forgotten (Forgotten)
No, no
I don't want to be unknown (Unknown)
And I know it's real common
But everybody's now watching
Oh, no
All the people I've consoled
Like, damn
I don't want to hate myself
I don't want to fear my health
Things I always keep withheld
You don't want to live like this
Should I really call it quits?
Maybe they were right about this
Everything will fade to mist

[Verse]
I work when it's late, and
I miss out on days, when
I should be outside, and
Instead I'm revising
I'll never be perfect
I want to be worth it
I threw my vacation
In hope that I'd make it (Ugh)

[Chorus]
I don't want to be rotten (Rotten)
Knowing I'll be forgotten (Forgotten)
No, no
I don't want to be unknown (Unknown)
And I know it's real common
But everybody's now watching
Oh, no
All the people I've consoled
Like, damn
I don't want to hate myself
I don't want to fear my health
Things I always keep withheld
You don't want to live like this
Should I really call it quits?
Maybe they were right about this
Everything will fade to mist
Like, damn (Like, damn)
I don't want to hate myself (I don't want to hate myself)
I don't want to fear my health
Things I always keep withheld (Withheld)
You don't want to live like this
Should I really call it quits?
Maybe they were right about this (Maybe they were right about this)
Everything will fade to mist
