Machine Gun Kelly - mainstream sellout Album Lyrics

---

born with horns

Mm-hm, yeah

Part one, why is it so hard to live?
Part two, I shouldn't have done what I did
Part three, everyone left me alone
Part four, I don't wanna live anymore

Yeah, I'd rather be a freak than somebody's puppet
Release your leash, I don't belong in the circus
They cut each my wings soon as my name was in cursive
Now I'm six feet deep, I guess my life wasn't perfect

In this film I know (I know, I know, I know, I know)
There's no happy endings (there is, there is, there is, there is)
In this film I know (I know, I know, I know, I know)
There's no happy endings (there is, there is, there is, there is)

I'm afraid they're awake
I'm cautious who I'm serenading
Summoned them by mistake
Price you pay for entertaining
Can't decide what is fake
Mercury is retrograding
How much time can I waste
Constantly feeling the same thing?

Ooh
Ooh
(Ah)

Alienate me, I'm not the one you want
(I feel so) alienated like I'm the devil's spawn
A boy with horns (yeah)
Alienate me, I'm not the one you want
(I feel so) alienated like I'm the devil's spawn
A boy with horns
Bang, bang, bang
A boy with horns
Bang, bang, bang

god save me

God save me, I'm f*cked up (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ignoring my problems (Ye-ye-ye-ye-ye-yeah)
You die, you're iconic
More plaques for their office

Um, sixteen years old, kicked out the home
Sixteen years old, out on the street
Can't reconcile, both of my parents are gone
I wanna talk to my dad but rest in peace
Last month, took a gun in the room alone
Last month, almost blew my head off
She screamеd and I never put down the phonе
I gotta be somewhere, please hang up

Now, smile for the camera
Breakups are entertaining
My mental imbalance
Mixed with the drugs create me

It's a good night, it's a good night to be high
Sober again, sober again, it's a lie
Therapy said, therapy said that I might
Do it again, do it again and die
I'm a lost boy, I'm a lost boy
She's a goth girl, she's a pop girl
I know a one way, I know a one way
To a lost world, to a lost world

Okay
Spaceships in the sky, we are not alone
I went out to the desert and I saw the light
Say hi 'cause the government tapped the phone
F*ck cops, read me my Miranda rights
Poison the brain, follow along
They'll make the rules for no reason
Run away, go find where you belong
And don't tell no one you're leaving

Now, smile for the camera
Breakdowns are entertaining
My mental imbalance
Mixed with the drugs create me

It's a good night, it's a good night to be high
Sober again, sober again, it's a lie
Therapy said, therapy said that I might
Do it again, do it again and die
I'm a lost boy, I'm a lost boy
She's a goth girl, she's a pop girl
I know a one way, I know a one way
To a lost world, to a lost world

La-da-da, la-da-da-da (La-da-da, la-da-da-da)
La-da-da, la-da-da-da (La-da-da, la-da-da-da)

I'm a lost boy, I'm a lost boy
She's a goth girl, she's a pop girl
I know a one way, I know a one way
To a lost world, to a lost world

God save me, I'm f*cked up
(La-da-da, la-da-da-da), oh
God save me, I'm f*cked up

maybe

That's hard
Two, three, five

Maybe if I had something to say
Butterfly effect from the last three days now
Maybe if I had something to save
I used to have a soul until I threw it away
There's shadows on the wall, wish I would've ran (Yeah)
Gotta get away, I hope you understand
I try to hide my face like a wanted man (Yeah)
Maybe I'll be gone before you count to ten

I made up my mind this evening
I'm taking the last, I'm taking the last
Drink while my conscience eats me
I'm taking the last, I'm taking the last
I'm ready to let you go
I'm ready to let you go
I'm ready to let you go
This time is the last, this time is the last

Maybe if we went another way (Another way)
I wouldn't be regretting the decisions that I made
I don't want to spend another day (Another day)
Looking for somebody that I know I can't replace
My tears fall, you don't miss me
Put me out my misery
Think my heart is history
I think I'm broken, nothing could fix me

I made up my mind this evening
I'm taking the last, I'm taking the last
Drink while my conscience eats me
I'm taking the last, I'm taking the last
I'm ready to let you go
I'm ready to let you go
I'm ready to let you go
This time is the last, this time is the last

Yeah (Maybe)
We were built to fall apart
But I can't feel you now
And it's too late now, there's no point screaming
Dug your grave, so f*ck your feelings
No one's here, so now you're on your own

Made up my mind this evening
I'm taking the last, I'm taking the last
Drink while my conscience eats me
I'm taking the last, I'm taking the last
I'm ready to let you go
I'm ready to let you go
I'm ready to let you go
This time is the last, this time is the last

drug dealer

[Machine Gun Kelly]
I wake up, my head hurts
But she got a couple blunts and Percocets in her purse

She's my drug dealer girl, yeah
Drug dealer girl, yeah, yeah, yeah
Drug dealer girl, ooh

Whole pound, just touched down, I flew it in myself
I just made this town mine, I sell it out
My back seats recline, I used to ride the train
Hit her line, my cup filled up with purple rain
My anatomy's made up of alcohol
It's been sevеnty hours on Adderall
These ain't cavitiеs, it's platinum in my teeth
Stoner and a loner, call her up, she coming over (Hey)

I wake up, my head hurts
But she got a couple blunts and Percocets in her purse
I can't front, I want first
If she got the good bag, I'ma pay what it's worth
She's my drug dealer girl, yeah
Drug dealer girl, yeah, yeah, yeah
Drug dealer girl, mmm
Drug dealer girl, uh

[Lil Wayne]
I'm so in love with her
My hoe, my drug dealer
I sell my soul to her
Without no refunds, nigga
I woke up numb in her
I smoke like guns with her
I don't need lungs, nigga
I'm god to all these nuns, sister
Whole pound, just touched down
F*ck it, let's throw a party
Hard drugs, mixed off ass
I'm snortin' coke off it
It took me seven days to get to know insomnia
My plug is my bae, somebody stole my charger

[Machine Gun Kelly & Lil Wayne, Lil Wayne]
I wake up (Yeah), my head hurts
But she got a couple blunts and Percocets in her purse (Yeah)
I can't front, I want first
If she got the good bag, I'ma pay what it's worth
She's my drug dealer girl, yeah
Drug dealer girl, yeah, yeah, yeah
Drug dealer girl, mmm
Drug dealer girl

[Machine Gun Kelly, Lil Wayne]
It's hard to function when I'm without you, without you
It's hard to function when I'm (When I'm) without you (Without you), without you (Without you)
It's hard to function (Yeah, yeah) when I'm (When I'm) without you (Without you), drug dealer girl (Without you)

​wall of fame (interlude)

[Pete Davidson, Casie Baker, Machine Gun Kelly]
What's this wall?
We love the wall!
It's a wall of famous people?
Yeah
Wow, LA sucks
I can't wait
Dad, you on the wall?
Are you on the wall, daddy?
Yeah
Ooh, well, that's cool 'cause I didn't see that I was on the wall and I'm a little jealous
I think the wall's lame, but I wanna be on it
Does that make sense?
Anyway, I hope the next song is a banger
Enjoy Machine Gun Kelly's album
What's the album, what you gonna call the album?

mainstream sellout

I heard the feedback, I'm a poser
With a guitar and a choker
Hidin' under sunglasses
I made an album, they hate the tracklist
Yeah

Leave the scene you're ruining it
Leave the scene you're ruining it
You sold out and it makes me sick, so
Leave the scene you're ruining it

You've got it easy, you're a celebrity
You've got new friends, and no enemies
You'rе no icon, you're just a parody
You might be relеvant, but just barely
Damn

Leave the scene you're ruining it
Leave the scene you're ruining it
You sold out and it makes me sick, so
Leave the scene you're ruining it

Oh, you're so ephemeral
You sold, you sold, you sold your
Soul straight to the devil
What for, what for, what for?

[Olivia Stone]
Does he even, like, play guitar?

Leave the scene you're ruining it (Ruining it)
Leave the scene you're ruining it (Ruining it)
You sold out and it makes me sick, so (Sick)
Leave the scene you're ruining it (Ruining it)

The mainstream's waiting, give them what they want now
The mainstream's waiting, give them what they want now

F*ck that dude

make up sex

[Machine Gun Kelly]
Okay, screaming when we f*ck, screaming when we fight, yeah
Even when I'm drunk, you're my only type, yeah
Please don't break my heart, I know that you might, yeah
Tell me, tell me now, are you 'bout that life? Yeah
Bonnie and Clyde, ready to die
Two gravesites, later tonight
You told me to stop waiting
I can feel your back breaking
Face down, lay pipe, ooh
Waterworks, swim your pool
Backstroke, we both naked
I can see that ass shaking (Damn)

Yeah, break up just to make up (Makе up)
You're gone when I wakе up
Yeah, break up just to make up (Make up)
You're gone when I wake up

[blackbear]
(Yeah) I love chaos, I love toxic
I love wreckage, I love falling
Pics you're taking, pics you're cropping
It's hard lately, I'm exhausted
You hate my guts then you love me
You make me feel so disgusting
Can't stop a runner from running
So, go, go, go
You're my only drug, you're my only vice, yeah
Fighting then we f*ck, you're my only type, yeah
Mixing bad decisions up with one night stands and Hennessey
All I've got's this broken heart but you can have the rest of me

[Machine Gun Kelly and blackbear]
Yeah, break up just to make up (Make up)
You're gone when I wake up
Yeah, break up just to make up (Make up)
You're gone when I wake up
When you come back, I'll be waiting (I'm missing you)
There's something you're not saying
When you come back, I'll be waiting (Is it someone new?)

[Machine Gun Kelly]
I'm missing you
Is it someone new?

emo girl

[Machine Gun Kelly & Megan Fox]
I am a God
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Yeah

[Machine Gun Kelly]
She's got makeup by the mirror in her bedroom
Thigh-high fishnets and some black boots
Nose pierced with the cigarette perfume
Half-dead, but she still looks so cute (Yeah)
She is a monster in disguise
And she knows all the words to the trap songs
Takes pics with a cherry-red lipstick
Says she only dates guys with a big (Mmm)

I'm in love with an emo girl
I fell in love with an emo girl
All I want is an emo girl

[WILLOW]
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

She puts eyeliner on her dark skin
She tells me lies, but she knows all of my secrets
And when we drive in the car and I say, "Who is this band?"
She says, "You won't understand, this some next shit"
Choke-choke-choker on her neck
Kiss me, holy f*ck, I'm bleeding on your Blink tee
So, so, so many regrets
You tell me you're depressed, baby girl, that makes two of us

[WILLOW & Machine Gun Kelly]
I fell in love with an emo girl
I'm in love with an emo girl
I fell in love with an emo girl
All I want is an emo girl
I fell in love with an emo girl
I'm in love with an emo girl
I fell in love with an emo girl
All I want is an emo girl

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Okay, I'm in love, hahaha
Yo, oh, my God, hahaha

5150

Bruises don't heal overnight
I'm a few sips from pulling the trigger
Self-abusive, on the borderline
Of having you be my gravedigger

Leave (leave), leave (leave), leave me now
Please (please), please (please), save yourself
Leave (leave), leave (leave), leave me now
Before I hurt someone else

You're crazy (5150)
I won't go (5150)
You make me (5150)
I'm damaged (please don't fix me)

I romanticized
All the wrong things for the wrong reasons
Now I'm paralyzed
Traumatized so I had to get even

Bleed (bleed), bleed (bleed), bleed me out
Please (please), please (please), save yourself
Leave (leave), leave (leave), leave me now
Before I hurt myself

You're crazy (5150)
I won't go (5150)
You make me (5150)
I'm damaged (please don't fix me)

It's time to confess, confess why you said this
Time to confess, confess that you're heartless
Uh, time to confess, confess why you said this
Okay, I confess, I confess, I was jealous
Time to confess, confess that you're heartless
Okay, I confess, I confess, I'm a narcissist

You're crazy (5150)
I won't go (5150)
You make me (5150)
I'm damaged (please don't fix me)
I got fifty-two cards
I drew the queen of hearts
You want me (5150)
You got me, 5150

papercuts (album edit)

Bleach my hair, mess it up
Take my life, dress it up
Signed a deal, I got papercuts
They wanted them, but they got us
Yeah, yeah, uh

Uh, sleepin' in, faked sick
Smoked a blunt, had a kid
Don't belong, I'm a punk
Hello world, you f*cking suck

Hey (Hey), hey, keep my mouth shut and wave
Hey (Hey), hey, I'm dancin' on my grave
Mhmm, mhmm

Everybody's so nice lately (Everybody's not nice)
Polarized feelings, I don't wear them on my face lately (I don't wear them on my face)
Internalized evеrything the headlines say latеly (Everything they say)
Demonized just because I was an angel face baby (Baby)

Career suicide

Hey (Hey), hey, keep my mouth shut and wave
Hey (Hey), hey, I'm dancin' on my grave
Mhmm, mhmm

I spend a lot of nights thinking
I might go to sleep and then never wake up
I spend a lot of money on these therapy sessions
Even though I'm not showing up
I spend a lot of time healing my mind and my heart
But I still put these drugs in my gut
Me and my girl were just screaming at each other
Right before we both got out of the truck
I got some demons inside
I'm tryna free them inside
I'm from the Cleveland East Side
Where the boy who was just starving with you
Now might try to eat you alive, damn
Y'all said that I switched genres
I saw the limit and took it farther
I'm a genius, could've made Donda
But this song is to my dead father, uh

Hey

WW4

The zombie apocalypse is not too far away
I think iRobot is real, but I'm kind of afraid to say
Any thoughts in my mind, they want to monitor us
Let's go and find the mainframe and blow the monitor up

I hear too many interviews
From these artists in the news
Speakin' on my name
So this is what we're gonna do
I got ten fingers, choose two
Both hands, f*ck you
Ten toes, black boots
Stomp the shit out of you

Go

Okay, here's some rules
Your teachers are full of shit
You don't need to go to school
Life's gonna kick your ass anyway

Hold me under
This frozen ice you call your heart
There's lightning and thunder
The Armageddon's 'bout to start

It's World War 4
Yeah
It's World War 4

Okay, this was gonna be a song on the album
But I can't sing anything right now so this is the song

---

Ay!

I don't ever wanna fall when I'm this high

I wrote a letter to myself
In the form of a song I can play when the sun shines
I know better than to trust
Anything that I say to myself when I'm this high

Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
I don't ever wanna fall when I'm this high
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
I don't ever wanna fall when I'm this high

I just did a interview with my eyes closed (motherf*cker)
I just sparked a blunt, it looked like pyro (pyro)
Only comments I see are the bad ones (yeah, yeah)
Only playlists I like are the sad ones
Yeah, I let the medicine in
I know it don't help in the end
But I got depression again
I had a meeting at seven
I skipped it and slept in
And woke up at seven PM
I cut my hair off like Britney
Sprinkled dust like a pixie
Wiped my nose like it's itchy
I'm tatted up, I don't give a f*ck (yeah)

Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
I don't ever wanna fall when I'm this high
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
I don't ever wanna fall when I'm this high

When I'm this high, when I'm this high
I just looked in the mirror, who is this guy?
It's a full moon, where the good shrooms?
I'm too f*cking high, sound like a good school
Higher than Jehova
High with the heavens
You know, I'ma get pulled over
I might need a chauffeur
Lean in my soda
So I'ma need a shoulder
Why you got your nose up?
I smell like Guns N' Roses

Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
I don't ever wanna fall when I'm this high (Tunechi)
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
I don't ever wanna fall when I'm this high

I don't ever wanna fall when I'm this high

Are, you recording?

I watched a movie scene, got déjà vu
'Cause the antagonist looked just like you

You got a dark side, well, I got a dark side too

Ayy, I don't trust a soul, not even dead ones (Dead ones)
All it took was leavin' me on read once (Read once)

[Machine Gun Kelly]
Killed the me I used to be
I might die in California
In my mind, I had a dream
Saw a demon on my shoulder
Yeah, I know, I should probably let it go (Let it go)
Yeah, I know, I might die in California, die in California, mmm

Ayy, someone cut the lights off please
I've been kinda sad lately
I know that I'm good for you (Yeah)
But you kinda bad, baby (Mm)
Witches doin' love chants, brewin' up the potion
I had a premonition I was overdosin' (So)
Someone cut the lights off please
I don't want you to look at me
I paint my nails black
If I ever look happy then it's an act
Every day is an anxiety attack
I wish I could take it back
To when I was drinkin' water out the tap
With the Cleveland logo printed on my hat
Tell me, was it my fear of bein' complacent
That ended up leavin' me so jaded?
I'm miserable even though I made it
Got a house in the Hills and I f*ckin' hate it (Ayy)

[Landon Barker]
Killed the me I used to be
I might die in California

[Gunna]
They gon' be missin' me
It's gon' be chaos when it come down to my royalties
I keep it still, I miss the exit, that's by any means (Woah)
Watch out for opps, watch out for cops, they kill for anything
I got on Prada shoes and Prada tee (Yes)
I love my brother, rest in peace, I know you're proud of me
I'm pourin' mud up, tryna stay away from Billie Jean
On all these opens, everybody say I'm hardly sleep
And I got demons on my shoulder, heart gettin' colder, I'm so cold
Keep me a heater, that's my toaster
In my coat, you would never know
Streets don't love you, I don't either
I don't need ya, no-no-no
I pray on my knees and I stay strong
Take care of my family, I don' wan' die alone

[Landon Barker, Young Thug]
Killed the me I used to be
I might die in California
In my mind, I had a dream
Saw a demon on my shoulder
Yeah, I know, I should probably let it go (Let it go)
Yeah, I know, I might die in California (Yeah), die in California


[Young Thug]
All this bread make her, speed up
When I did, ate her, I made her sit up
I don't talk to a pillow
I don't walk, Rolls Royce Truck

sid & nancy

Can y'all hear me out here?
Are those speakers on? Yeah
Yeah, they are

I knew a girl who'd wear my t-shirts when she went to sleep at night
She'd make sure I'm breathin' in the morning
We were locked inside a room, I ate a pill shaped like the moon
Put her tongue into my mouth like she wanted it
We can't hide this secret anymore
I'm inside, I let you take control
Once we met, I cannot love someone again
Cut my chest, gave you my heart and soul

Wait, where ya goin'?
Close my eyes
She said, "I'm comin' with you tonight"
Yeah, close my eyes
Count to ten and see if I die


I knew a girl who saw me cry before 'cause I was broken
I was in hell, burning alive, how did you find me here?
She wrapped her arms around her body and said, "Don't stop holding"
Now start the car, baby, and take me the f*ck out of here
Rip my shirt, I feel your skin on mine
This is yours, you can take my life
Drip my words onto the paint
Your knife did not work, no
We could've died

Wait, where ya goin'?
Close my eyes
She said, "I'm comin' with you tonight"
Yeah, close my eyes
Count to ten and see if I die
Write it in blood and we both sign
Sid and Nancy in murder-suicide
These are her words and mine
Sid and Nancy in murder-suicide

I'm not watching you with somebody else in this life or the next life
I'm not sorry, I don't care if you cry, if we die, then we die
Let's go

Wait, where we goin'? (Mm)
Close my eyes
She said, "I'm comin' with you tonight"
Yeah, close my eyes
Count to ten and see if I die
Write it in blood and we both sign
Sid and Nancy in murder-suicide
These are her words and mine
Sid and Nancy in murder-suicide

twin flame

[Machine Gun Kelly]
Yeah

[Machine Gun Kelly]
It's been six days since the last time I saw your face and you asked my sign
I told you mine, I question why, and you said, "Everything's aligned"
On the first day, you told me, "I was your twin flame from a past life"
And tonight the moon is full, so take me anywhere outside
I cannot kiss you yet, you're magic, so I'll just stare at you instead
I get insecure and panic 'cause I know you're too pure for this

[Machine Gun Kelly]
You're too good for me
I'm too bad to keep
I'm too sad, lonely
I want you only

[Machine Gun Kelly]
Ay, I got six ways to say that I fell in love with you at first sight
I wish that I could frame the way you look at me with those eyes
Freeze timе, baby, rewind
Maybe ask you earliеr, "Be mine"
See, I didn't understand déjà vu 'til I met you

[Machine Gun Kelly]
You're too good for me
I'm too bad to keep
I'm too sad, lonely
I want you only
You're too good for me
I'm too bad to keep
I'm too sad, lonely
I want you only

[Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox]
I feel like, I'm just leaving here and...
You feel like what?
Me and you can just drive somewhere, we can just leave
Okay, I love you
I love you
(In this film I know, there's no happy ending
In this film I know, there's no happy endings)

[Machine Gun Kelly]
Go to sleep, I'll see you in my dreams
This changes everything, now I have to set you free

[Instrumental Outro]
