lyrics

Don't we look the same
You shamed a life that I don't choose
Sucked up all the fame
And bragged of how they let you loose
Just don't be a disgrace tonight
Because I don't have time
To celebrate the failures
To do that we're all inclined
To dole out the shit
But I won't mind
'Cause every force of nature knows
When to react or nevermind
And I won hands down
So I can leave town tonight
And as the story goes
Not looking back took all my might

Now I'll dress myself up and run around

Don't we look the same
What I don't choose
Sucked up all the fame
I begged of you

Don't we look the same
You shamed a life that I don't choose
Sucked up all the fame
And bragged of how they let you loose

Just don't be a disgrace tonight
Because I don't have time
To celebrate the failures
To do that we're all inclined
To dole out the shift
But I won't mind
'Cause every force of nature knows
When to react or nevermind
And I won hands down
So I can leave town tonight
And as the story goes
Not looking back took all my might

Now I'll dress myself up and run around
