Don't you know my mind was the first that went.
I sincerely tried and tried just to make amends
But you're not listening to my petty shit.
Been convicted of a crime that I haven't committed yet and you seem fine.
Ok, now I'll be the first to admit I made a giant mess that I could never fix.
And I'm not cleaning it, no not one bit
Been convicted of a crime that I haven't committed yet and you seem fine.
Yeh you seem alright...
But I feel tainted again, I feel tainted, as the pain it just set in
I was tainted by a friend, tainted... Tainted...
Well don't you know my mother was the first that wept.
She really tried her best but she could never correct my constant missteps
Whether right or left.
She took a lot of time but she gave much more than she kept..
And now I'm wasted again, I'm so wasted.
As the pain it just set in, I was tainted by a friend.
I feel wasted, I'm so wasted.
As the pain it just set in, I was tainted by a friend,
Tainted, tainted, and now I'm wasted, wasted.
And now you've got me tainted, la la la la, la la la la la la la la
Tainted la la la la, la la la la la la la la
And now I'm wasted la la la la, la la la la la la la la
You seem fine, and you're alright, and you seem...
You seem fine, and you're alright, yeh you're alright.
(But I feel tainted again, I feel tainted, as the pain it just set in
I was tainted by a friend, tainted... Tainted...)
