My heart ticks in beat with these kids that I grew up with
living like life's going out of style.
You came to watch us play...like a "Big shot talent,"
but at the end of the day you know where we come from
and where we call home.
They'll say it's not worth it.
So we'll leave this town in ruin.
living like life's going out of style.
You came to watch us play...like a "Big shot talent,"
but at the end of the day you know those busted lips
we take back home.
I know you would be there either way.
I'm so glad it seems like these times will never fade.
So I'll tell everyone how much this means to me.
I got my stitches stitched, I got my fixes fixed,
In my aching head I got my kisses slipped.
Our gossip lips stuttered every word I said, I said,
I got your love letters, corrected the grammar and sent them back.
It's true - romance is dead, I shot it in the chest then in the head.
And if you wanna go down in history then I'm your prince,
Because they've got me in a bad way.
I've never seen a heart I couldn't break.
It was never about the songs, it was competition,
Make the biggest scene, make the biggest...
Which came first, the music or the misery?
I'm casually-obsessed and I've forgiven death,
I am indifferent yet, (I am total wreck.)
I'm every cliche, but I simply do it best.
I went to sleep a poet, and I woke up a fraud,
To calm your nerves I'm feeling for my clothes in the dark.
I'm gonna make you bend and break.
Say a prayer, but let the good times roll,
In case god doesn't show.
Let the good times roll.
Let the good times roll.
And I want these words to make things right,
But it's the wrongs that make the words come to life.
"Who does he think he is?"
If that's the worst you got,
Better put your fingers back to the keys.
One night, yeah, and one more time.
Thanks for the memories.
Thanks for the memories.
"See, he tastes like you only sweeter."
Been looking forward to the future,
But my eyesight is going bad.
And this crystal ball,
Is always cloudy,
Except for when you look into the past.
One night stand.
One night stand off.
