[Intro]
Once again I was left in the dust
Destructive ones like me fold when there is nothing to bust
I couldn't see
Past the bright facade - layers of rust
It's not like I'm saying goodbye
Hey, why are you smiling still, cool guy?
[Verse 1]
"This world is a cruel place to people like you
I'll keep you safe"
Said the prison guard, digging his grave
And so I craved
Every single meeting with you the same to say
"How are you? How was your day?"
So
[Interlude]
"Um... listen, it's gonna sound weird, but..."
"What is it? You're hitting on me?"
"NO!"
"It's just that...Those parties you love..."
"Yeah?"
"I want you to take me to one"
"Huh?!"
[Chorus]
So a boyish constitution
Gets to lead a revolution
Everything about you screams "a bad idea"
Yet the walls around my sheltered heart
Begin to break and fall apart
Your smile is brighter than the most relentless sun
[Verse 2]
"This world is a cruel place to people like you
I told you so"
I won't give him that, damage control
Won't help me then
Ah, I wish I felt nothing at all
But I'll take that blow, take that blow
I'll take more!
[Interlude]
"So dear, are you having fun?"
"Ah, sorry for spiking your guns"
"You mind if I join you now?"
"Oh it's okay, I'm calm--"
"You know I really hate this town"
So
[Chorus]
When a boyish constitution
Gets to lead a revolution
Everything about it screams "a bad idea"
I won't ever bear my foolish heart
I'll paint my face with blood and dirt
The chain has broken, I've no right to feel this hurt
[Bridge]
Once again I was left in the dust
Destructive ones like me fold when there is nothing to bust
I couldn't see
Past the bright facade - layers of rust
It's not like I'm saying goodbye
But just in case, I wanna tell you I --
"There's a stupid thing I used to say -
"Pathetic ones like me lose before we join the game"
- That's really lame!
So tomorrow I'll see you again"
"Then don't you dare flake on me, I won't let you get away with ditching this time!"
Don't leave me behind again, cool guy
