Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1995
They all said what a blessing, I had arrived

But I was born with a curse
In a perfect suburb, and it only got worse (Oh)
I was drawn to the dark with the Devil's mark
I was doomed from the start

I wanna be cool, tried to be wild
Everyone said I was a gifted child
Punctured my skin, pulled me apart
Guess I was doomed, I was doomed from the start

Wednesdays, I had church
I prayed I'd make a friend (Mmm)
If I knew what he could do
I would've never gone in
If only I knew then 'cause

I was born with a curse
In a perfect suburb, and it only got worse (Oh)
I was drawn to the dark with the Devil's mark
I was doomed from the start

I wanna be cool, tried to be wild
Everyone said I was a gifted child
Punctured my skin, pulled me apart
Guess I was doomed, I was doomed from the start

I wanna be cool, tried to be wild
Everyone said I was a gifted child
Punctured my skin, pulled me apart
Guess I was doomed, I was doomed from the start
