BOY
78Violet Lyrics

I called you a sweet, boy
I used to think you were kind and charming.

Your nothing but weak, boy
You don't have the strength to be what I need.

Yeah! You're nothing but weak, boy
I'm emphasizing that you are weak and not good enough.

I called you a loud, boy
I thought you were confident and bold.

You're only a bad boy
I now see that you are only a troublemaker.

You're just not enough, boy
You are insufficient and disappointing.

And I blame your mother
I hold your mother responsible for your shortcomings.

And I'll blame your father
I hold your father responsible for your shortcomings.

Since you have a brother
Because you have a brother, I'll blame his mother too.

I wish I never laid my eyes
I regret ever seeing or meeting you.

On that pretty face of yours
I used to find you attractive, but not anymore.

You have a heart that only a mother could love
You're not a good person, but your mother still loves you.

I wanted a tree, boy
I wanted something substantial and lasting from you.

But you gave me a leaf, boy
You only gave me something small and meaningless.

It's nothing to me, boy
I don't care about what you've given me.

I gave you the world, boy
I did everything for you, but got nothing in return.

Without a return, boy
You didn't give me anything in exchange for all I did.

Now I'm just hurt, boy
I'm upset and in pain because of how you've treated me.

And I wish I never laid my eyes on you
I seriously regret ever seeing or meeting you.

You have a broken heart that I could never touch
You're emotionally damaged and I can't help or fix you.

I'll plant it and see, boy
I'm going to test if something substantial can grow from you.

Now you watch it grow, boy
You'll see something good come from you, if anything.

Long after I leave, boy
I won't be around to see the results, if any.
