Why were we never closer like you were with him?
Is it too much to ask for that you'd let me in?
We'll race soapbox cars later and I'd let you win!
Being a stranger in your company is never easy

It's all right
I don't mind if you don't think I'm cool
but please don't lie when you tell me
we're like blood and forever two
'cause I'd never lie to you

Somehow I don't think you want to deal with this
(Not you, not again, just snap out of it)
Your shallow doghouse tactics makes me feel ill
(Can't you see I'm too busy now?)
Your smile was always crooked but I know when I'm served a lie
Being a stranger in your company is never easy

It's all right
I don't mind if you don't think I'm cool
but please don't lie when you tell me
we're like blood and forever two
'cause I'd never lie to you

I'm so sorry I didn't know
That you had different plans
for where this evening would go
But you see I'm a little detached
Haven't made up my mind about where I'm at
Like a surgeon you cut right through
Little pieces fall out you don't know what to do
Life was never a comic book
I won't be your hero nor will you be the crook

You wear your heart
on your sleeve
so unnecessary
Yeah, I've been burnt
by your kind
so many times, before

I'm so sorry I didn't know
There were certain rules I was supposed to follow
Now we stare blankly at the walls
waiting for something to save us from this awkward pause
Guess you’ve noticed I'm a little detached
Haven't made up my mind about where I'm at

Where I'm at (x2)

You wear your heart on your sleeve
so unnecessary
Yeah, I've been burnt by your kind
so many times, before

And I was wrong
to ask you out
when I clearly had someone else in mind
And even worse
There were things I said
secrets I should have kept to myself

Now I just made a mess
of our first date
I just tried to impress
but failed on a grand scale
It’s time for me to confess:
I don't know why you just don't want to run away!
I don’t don’t know why you still wanna stay

Keep getting stuck in the traffic
Keep getting my brand new sneakers wet
All this in a day's work
And I used to think Mondays were the best
But you wouldn’t believe the troubles I’ve seen

Tarred, feathered with guilt and anguish
Ridiculed like a freak on a leash
This is not how I pictured it
I always thought it would turn out pretty neat
But I guess I was wrong
All along, I guess I was wrong, all this time, all along

This could certainly have proven fatal
If I’d stop to check you out

How can you dance at a time like this?
When the bombs comes a'flyin' who will care for the kids?
A man in North Korea's got his finger on the switch!
Still you are grooving claiming ignorance is bliss

You might be right
You might just be a prophet, a prophet in disguise
You might be right
You might just be a prophet, a prophet in disguise
Let's make our mothers and fathers proud and just give up!
Let's make our mothers and fathers proud and just give up!

How can you dance at a time like this
when soon you can ski down the Las Vegas strip?
All your pimped-out lowriders and your grills won't mean a thing
when we all live underwater there's no need for all that bling

You might be right
You might just be a prophet, a prophet in disguise
You might be right
You might just be a prophet, a prophet in disguise
Let's make our mothers and fathers proud and just give up!
Let's make our mothers and fathers proud and just give up!

Some might say I try too hard
and it's better to die with a restful heart
but no.......
