I'm nothing special and I pay my taxes And try to get by with recycled relapses The things that we crave have the prettiest names And leave us in ruins to rebuild the hate I think it's time for a little compa**ion When sh** hits the fan, I'm the only one laughing Cut up your courage and fill up your insides I'll start my engines when you leave the drag lines (Chorus) I'm stuck in reverie Seven seconds, then I'm back to me It only hurts now, the only cure in town I make the plays but never the team I'm a cardboard cutout of my former fashion All of my words proceed paper-thin actions Don't mind me I'm thinking, I'm thoughtless I live in a mirror and hope that I'm not this gone (Chorus) Pour truth in the fact we dilute our own actions By calling the shots by the ounce over rocks And we just shoot the breeze to catch wind of our needs I've got a foot on thin ice and one on a headstone for me I'll put down these gla**es when I find the past again (Chorus) Come back to this hopeless romantic This boy in the attic is going nowhere I'm messed up, looking for justice Suppressed in a substance, and I'm going nowhere
