The Same Tattoos Lyrics
I was born in the same town as you
Hell, I even think we have the same tattoos
My mother hates it when I smile
And she sees you coming through me
Like a sunshine through thin glass
It's not like you were really gone gone gone gone
But you were
And I never felt love (x2)
My uncle gave me on the day that I turned thirteen
A black box, it said Gillette, rusted and scratched
And it was full of memories and memorabilia
And a necklace with the saints I wore in class
It's not like you were really gone gone gone gone
But you were
And I never felt love (x4)
Hell, I even think we have the same tattoos
My mother hates it when I smile
And she sees you coming through me
Like a sunshine through thin glass
But you were
And I never felt love (x2)
A black box, it said Gillette, rusted and scratched
And it was full of memories and memorabilia
And a necklace with the saints I wore in class
But you were
And I never felt love (x4)

"a black box that said Gillette rusted and scratched"
such a sad song. about a father that left or died...i think. pretty sure 'you' is the singers father.
