I used to be such a burning example
|
|
I used to be so original
|
|
I used to care, I was being cared for
|
|
Made sure I showed it to those that I love
|
|
|
|
I used to sleep without a single stir
|
|
'Cause I was about my father's work
|
|
|
|
Well take me out tonight
|
|
The ship of fools I'm on will sink
|
|
I'm my own stone around my neck
|
|
Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give
|
|
|
|
I used to pray like God was listening
|
|
I used to make my parents proud
|
|
I was the glue that kept my friends together
|
|
Now they don't talk and we don't go out
|
|
|
|
I used to know the name of every person I kissed
|
|
Now I've made this bed and I can't fall asleep in it
|
|
|
|
Well take me out tonight
|
|
The ship of fools I'm on will sink
|
|
I'm my own stone around my neck
|
|
Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give
|
|
|
|
Well throw me that lifeline
|
|
The ship of fools I'm on will sink
|
|
I'm my own stone around my neck
|
|
Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give
|
|
|
|
Never hit the brakes
|
|
There's no time to save him
|
|
He just ran out in the street
|
|
Anybody know his name?
|
|
I think I recognize him
|
|
Sure as hell, he paid for that mistake
|
|
|
|
Woah, woah, woah, woah
|
|
|
|
(I used to be such a burning example)
|
|
So take me out tonight
|
|
(I used to be so original)
|
|
The ship of fools I'm on will sink
|
|
(I used to care, I was being cared for)
|
|
I'm my own stone around my neck
|
|
(Made sure I showed it to those that I love)
|
|
Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give
|
|
|
|
(I used to pray like God was listening)
|
|
To save my life tonight
|
|
(I used to make my parents proud)
|
|
The ship of fools I'm on will sink
|
|
(I was the glue that kept my friends together)
|
|
I'm my own stone around my neck
|
|
(Now they don't talk and we don't go out)
|
|
Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give
