Lyrics:

This is how I show my love
I made it in my mind because
I blame it on my ADD baby
This is how an angel dies
I blame it on my own supply
I blame it on my ADD baby

Sail

Maybe I should cry for help
Maybe I should kill myself
I blame it on my ADD baby
Maybe I’m a different breed
Maybe I’m not listening
I blame it on my ADD baby

Sail

Sail with me into the dark
