Milktoast Lyrics

Helmet

Tell me if you think it's all right
I'll give in to what you know
I don't see the habits that become me
I've saved up my useless thoughts.
Well means, it works I'm on your side,
I said that? Well so I lied,
Remember I tried not to be wary,
To fail me once too much.
Unrecognized
Well preserved
Don't forget what you heard
