Fort Minor Strange Things Lyrics

Everybody up
Let me introduce to you,
a man that you heard of who you thought you knew,
give me a couple of seconds just to prove to you,
you never did, but let me give you a chance too,
I use to swear everybody had it in for me
people only wanted to talk to spit on me
so I'd paint pictures, draw a little bit
and every time I'd was p___ed off at some kid
I'd get home draw a little sketch
of any kid i hated with a knife in the neck
a pencil in the eye and a hole in the back,
I had a backpack of six sketches like that,
and over time people started to see
the pictures that I made, made a lot of sense to me,
but it never really made much of a difference,
They still talked s___, just not at close distance,
And that sucked because all I wanted to have
was a little attention whether the good and bad,
but over time I got sick of trying
and kept making them pictures and kept redrawing lines

I don't know where I'm going with this
I'm just reminising and telling the story of this
Sit back and take in the story of a kid, as I look back at the strange things I did

Everybody up
Let me tell the truth to you
I never thought I'd be anyone you wished you knew,
and just thought I'd end up a stain on the wall,
something you want to fix because you've seen it all,
Anyway back at psi
I had a class with this smart mouth friend of mine,
and we would sit in the back, the two of us combine,
we'd make fun of everybody just to pass the time,
now we did it quietly so no one heard,
a couple of nerds sentence full of pictures and words
until this kid heard we were calling him names and decided to get tough,
I remember he came up to me that day in front of half my friends and talk s___ so loud people couldn't pretend they didn't hear him,
saying he would beat my a__ and I laughed
but he was serious and pushed me back,
At this point I was pretty confused,
this little b____ was all amped so what could I do,
I should have come back at him for all to see,
but instead i just told him that it
wasn't me

I don't know where I'm going with this
I'm just reminising and telling the story of this
Sit back and take in the story of a kid, as I look back at the strange things I did

It's like flat liners, you see that flick,
people die and come back saying crazy s___, people that they did wrong come back to attack them
and everyone that they hurt comes back for revenge,
Well, if that was ever going to happen to me,
I'd potentially be attacked constantly
but then again, for all the pain in my past
there'd be a lot of people that had better watch their a__

I don't know where I'm going with this
I'm just reminising and telling the story of this
Sit back and take in the story of a kid, as I look back at the strange things I did
