Title: Story
Lyrics StoryHear me when I speak
And just listen and try not to be
Some kind of self-righteous high being
Where the opposites mislead me
To better your mind and see
This is a story of how we can be
They're building you up to tear you down
They won't admit it but it's true
Smiling advice to end with your frown
Cause they don't want what's best for you
It's sad I know I know
But you know I'm something else
And now's my turn to just sit back and tell
That you don't know just when to stop
You're living life to be on top
So start back here and be real
And just admit the way you feel
And see we are all one big learning game
And it's true that
We all want to be the baddest
We all have a little baggage
Even though we hide it
And we always will deny it
We are driving this float down Main
In this pride parade
And I'm not saying that I'm any better than you
Sometimes I have motives that are just so stupid
And I play the fool
But man you're killing me
The charade has got to end
So stop acting like you know everything
Because you're missing the point
You were supposed to be my friend
You don't know just when to stop
You're living life to be on top
So start back here and be real
And just admit the way you feel
And see we are all one big learning game
And it's true that
We all want to be the baddest
We all have a little baggage
Even though we hide it
And we always will deny it
We are driving this float down Main
In this pride parade
I don't, I don't know know
Just try, just try
To lean away
Take me to another place
Where I know, I know
What's happening
To my head and to my dreams
Cause I want, I want
I need, I need
Some peace of mind and clarity
So just take take my hand
And let's leave
You don't know just when to stop
You're living life to be on top
So start back here and be real
And just admit the way you feel
And see we are all one big learning game
And it's true that
We all want to be the baddest
We all have a little baggage
Even though we hide it
And we always will deny it
We are driving this float down Main
In this pride parade
Ohhh ohhh ohhh...
Ba da da da... |
