lyrics

I think they’re full of themselves don’t make a fool of yourself
Don’t make a don’t make a fool
They got so much talent, but no one sees it
What would you do what would you do
Was it such a surprise when I told you breathlessly
Exhaustedly I’d just rather stay home and you still don’t see
I just don’t believe in that way
I gotta problem with them them kinda people that just have to care, well
I suppose that’s kinda contradictory I no longer care

Scream your heart out you were a pearl to me the world to me
Until I found you always were to good for me to look up to you and
Could you let off on the overkill and
Tonight well pick up the pieces of this mismatched puzzle strewn across the floor
A lie to day so alive tomorrow singin’ sorrowful songs to forget the sorrow

I kinda hate you today words I never thought I would say oh but hey
You know I was wrong and I can’t believe that she keeps sayin’
It’s lack of gratitude behind my attitude anyway
It wasn’t such a surprise when I found out what you’ve been
Up to lately I’d just rather not think about that and I just can’t believe you could say
I gotta problem with you the kinda person that just has to care, well
I suppose that’s kinda contradictory I no longer care

Scream your heart out you were a pearl to me the world to me
Until I found you always were to good for me to look up to you and
Could you let off on the overkill and
Tonight well pick up the pieces of this mismatched puzzle strewn across the floor
A lie to day so alive tomorrow singin’ sorrowful songs to forget the sorrow

Scream loud Don’t stay a lie today
