Sensitive Kid - Cold War Kids

I try being sweet, it’s buried deep in me Now I can only see red on red

My mom’s going out with my best friends' dad

She talking loud I can’t believe what she said

A sensitive kid

A sensitive kid

They sold the house, left photo albums there

No silverware while paper walls were bare

I called all my friends, «Come over!

Come one, come all!

Let’s get a crowd here for one last hoorah!»

A sensitive kid

A sensitive kid

Who made me The sensitive kid

A sensitive kid

The message was bleak, my brother pounded it in me

You climb it up or you cut it down

This is your family tree

I know you were born with a heart of gold

But I want a purple heart that cannot dissolve

The sensitive kid

A sensitive kid

Don’t call me A sensitive kid

A sensitive kid

I can’t tell you why

You should’ve known it Sensitive kids

Start acting like a grown up I can’t tell you why

You should’ve known it Sensitive kids

Start acting like a grown up I can’t tell you why

You should’ve known it Sensitive kids

Start acting like a grown up I can’t tell you why

You should’ve known it Sensitive kids

Start acting like a grown up
