lyrics

When I was just thirteen years old
I thought I could be someone someday
I thought I could do anything
I wonder how I got that way

And these hands could make a man
But I don't know who I am
I don't know who I am

When I was seventeen years old
Thought I could make my dreams come true
Thought I had it all figured out
Never stopped to think about you

And these hands could save a man
But I don't know who I am
I don't know who I am

Now I'm just trying to stay young
But twenty-two is so far gone
I never thought I'd get this far
I wonder how much I got wrong

And these hands could kill a man
But I don't know who I am
I don't know who I am

I said these hands, could kill a man
But I don't know who I am
I don't know who I am

These hands just don't understand
