Some boys hate themselves
00:46
Spend their lives resenting their fathers
00:47
Some girls hate their bodies
00:51
Stand in the mirror and wait for the feedback
00:52
Saying, "God, make me famous
00:56
If you can't, just make it painless"
00:58
Just make it painless
01:01
Assisted suicide
01:11
She dreams about dying all the time
01:13
She told me she came so close
01:15
Filled up the bathtub and put on our first record
01:18
(God, make me famous)
01:21
(If you can't) Just make it painless
01:23
Just make it painless
01:27
It goes on and on, I don't know what I want
01:35
On and on, I don't know if I want it
01:38
On and on, I don't know what I want
01:41
On and on, I don't know if I want it
01:43
(On and on, I don't know what I want
01:46
On and on, I don't know if I want it
01:48
On and on, I don't know what I want
01:51
On and on, I don't know if I want it)
01:53
Some girls hate themselves
02:01
Hide under the covers with sleeping pills, and
02:03
Some girls cut themselves
02:06
Stand in the mirror and wait for the feedback
02:08
(Some boys get too much)
02:11
Too much love, too much touch
02:13
Some boys starve themselves
02:16
Stand in the mirror and wait for the feedback)
02:18
Creature comfort, makes it painless
02:21
Bury me penniless and nameless
02:24
Born in a diamond mine
02:27
It's all around you, but you can't see it
02:28
Born in a diamond mine
02:31
It's all around you, but you can't touch it
02:34
Sayin', "God, make me famous"
02:36
If you can't, just make it painless"
02:39
Just make it painless
02:43
It's not painless
02:47
She was a friend of mine
02:50
A friend of mine
02:54
And we're not nameless, oh
02:57
It goes on and on, I don't know what I want
03:06
On and on, I don't know if I want it
03:09
On and on, I don't know what I want
03:12
On and on, I don't know if I want it
03:14
(On and on, I don't know what I want
03:16
On and on, I don't know if I want it
03:19
On and on, I don't know what I want)
03:22
Well, if you're not sure, better safe than sorry
03:24
Creature comfort, make it painless
03:34
Creature comfort, make it painless
03:45
We're the bones under your feet
03:47
The white lie of American prosperity
03:50
We wanna dance, but we can't feel the beat
03:53
I'm a liar, don't doubt my sincerity
03:55
Just make it painless
04:00
Creature comfort, make it painless
04:05
Creature comfort, make it painless
04:25

[English]
Some boys hate themselvesSpend their lives resenting their fathers
Some girls hate their bodies
Stand in the mirror and wait for the feedback
Saying, "God, make me famous
If you can't, just make it painless"
Just make it painless
Assisted suicide
She dreams about dying all the time
She told me she came so close
Filled up the bathtub and put on our first record
(God, make me famous)
(If you can't) Just make it painless
Just make it painless
It goes on and on, I don't know what I want
On and on, I don't know if I want it
On and on, I don't know what I want
On and on, I don't know if I want it
(On and on, I don't know what I want
On and on, I don't know if I want it
On and on, I don't know what I want
On and on, I don't know if I want it)
Some girls hate themselves
Hide under the covers with sleeping pills, and
Some girls cut themselves
Stand in the mirror and wait for the feedback

Too much love, too much touch
Some boys starve themselves

Creature comfort, makes it painless
Bury me penniless and nameless
Born in a diamond mine
It's all around you, but you can't see it
Born in a diamond mine

Sayin', "God, make me famous"
If you can't, just make it painless"
Just make it painless
It's not painless
She was a friend of mine
A friend of mine
And we're not nameless, oh
It goes on and on, I don't know what I want
On and on, I don't know if I want it
On and on, I don't know what I want
On and on, I don't know if I want it

On and on, I don't know if I want it
On and on, I don't know what I want)
Well, if you're not sure, better safe than sorry
Creature comfort, make it painless
Creature comfort, make it painless
We're the bones under your feet
The white lie of American prosperity
We wanna dance, but we can't feel the beat
I'm a liar, don't doubt my sincerity
Just make it painless
Creature comfort, make it painless
Creature comfort, make it painless
