Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴Thirteen thirteen now their saying I′m a mourner
'Cause all the fuckin′ loves gone from my heart and I warned ya
Telling me look to the stars but I can't see the pointa
'Cause all the fuckin′ loves gone from my heart I destroyed ya
(Uh) I′m destroying myself throw a penny down the well
'Cause I ain′t been doing well been battling in a shell
Smoking on a L but I should really stop as well
(Uh uh) All I really do is smoke weed and cry blood Looking in the mirror see the fading of your love
Draining away like the water down a plug

(Look look)
Locked in the mist I'm standing in a shadow
Tryna fight the feeling it′s an everyday battle

Looking in my eyes you see the love fade away
Getting pulled in but I don't really wanna stay

Looking in my eyes you see the love fade away
Getting pulled in but I don′t really wanna stay
(Uh uh uh)

(Look) Thirteen thirteen lil delly what's wrong?
Use to be on topa the world
Now your looking like your delly souls gone
Don't let the world get you down yo you got to carry on
Yeah I promise at the enda
Every night there′ll be a new day born
I know you feel the pain of the planet
And every day you can′t stand it
What's love tell me do you really understand it
Open up your heart don′t be closing it 'cause of damage
Holy fucking delics we sent you to save the planet

(Ay ay)
Holy fucking delics we sent you to save the planet
