Lyrics

See the rollers rolling up
They put me in the handcuffs
I didn't do nothing wrong
Just trying to get along
So don't smile your eyes at me
Cuz it don't mean shit to a latchkey kid
Hard knocks have made me
Hard as a rock
Don't want to let it in my heart
But its going to y head
Latchkey kid introverted
Better off dead
Where does our childhood go
We grew up before we every really grew
Sometimes I want to sweep down and save you
We gotta make our own mistakes
But I can't watch you fucking up
I can still remember that
Smiling face that
Made not me feel so out of place
Latchkey kid better off dead
