You know I've always been a bad seed
Drifted any way the wind blows
Now I ain't got much to show you know
You reap just what you sow

You know I've always been a loner
Tried to settle for a spell
Had an angel in my corner
I made her life a living [bad word] 
Bad seed
There's a darkness I can't hide
Bad seed
Too much pain to keep inside

Now don't you go and try to help me
I don't try to help my self
I came to a losin' hand
An empty heart is all that's left

Bad seed
There's a darkness I can't hide
Bad seed
Too much pain to keep inside

Bad seed
There's a darkness I can't hide
Bad seed
Too much pain to keep inside
