Lyrics, Cara Baca & English Translation
Kerosene, dopamine, chemical-induced
Fantasy and fame, yeah, the things we choose
Show me hate, show me love, make me bulletproof
Yeah, we call this shit normal (Woo-woo)
Run away, out of sight, don't know what I want
Wish I had a minute just to turn me off
Kerosene, dopamine, what I gotta do?
Yeah, we call this shit normal (Ah-ooh)
Heavy is the head when you chasin' true
Will you color me red? Will you color me blue?
Two sides of a coin, and they both ain't true
Is it different for me? Is it different for you?
Got me feelin' things unusual
And I live 'em all
Got me and my feelings up on this wall
And my knees-ees
Kerosene, dopamine, chemical-induced
Fantasy and fame, yeah, the things we choose
Show me hate, show me love, make me bulletproof
Yeah, we call this shit normal (Woo-woo)
Run away, out of sight, don't know what I want
Wish I had a minute just to turn me off
Kerosene, dopamine, what I gotta do?
Yeah, we call this shit normal (Ah-ooh)
How I'm 'posed to feel?
Used to think that I was built with a heart made of steel
Now I understand the truth, some pain don't heal
If everything's just happy, mm, that ain't real (That ain't real)
I breathe everything out like a thousand times
Normal and special, they are just some lines
One deep sigh, then it slips away, fades away
What I try to keep never want to stay
Runaway, pushin' me, pullin' me, said you wanted all of me
But what is even all of me?
Suddenly, part of me is hauntin' me, heard the things they callin' me
What the hell you want from me? (Want from me)
Got me feelin' things unusual
And I live 'em all
Got me and my feelings up on this wall
And my knees-ees
Kerosene, dopamine, chemical-induced
Fantasy and fame, yeah, the things we choose
Show me hate, show me love, make me bulletproof
Yeah, we call this shit normal (Woo-woo)
Run away, out of sight, don't know what I want
Wish I had a minute just to turn me off
Kerosene, dopamine, what I gotta do?
Yeah, we call this shit normal (Ah-ooh)
No, we, no, we, no, we call this shit normal
No, we, no, we, no, we call this shit normal, yeah
No, we, no, we, no, we call this shit normal
