I'm the worst kind of person
To seek for solace
That doesn't mean I'm loveless
There's not much I can say
Blow a kiss to your adversary
Welcome to solitary
It's not as bad as you think it is
Once you get used to it
I'm trying
Just because I'm failing
Doesn't mean I'm not caring
Life without you
Is life without gravity
It's as cold as a chamber
You shield me from danger
Give me a moment to think
About how much you mean to me
I'll let you know tonight
Meanwhile
Let the darkness block your eyesight
Allow the music
To drown out the sound of dismay
Calling in the distance
Have some resistance
Farewell to your shell
It's time to rebel
Forget everything you know
Why don't we turn into no shows?
Disregard the romance
We can dance alone
Behave like we're misfits
Draw on the mirror with lipstick
Make them overlook our existence
Time takes a little
Let's wait
I know your life's not that great
Trust me
There will be better days
Perfume and cologne
That's how we recognize our own
Don't ever lose hope
Good luck
Is depending on a wishbone
You've become disenchanted
With that
You left me stranded
Your flaws make you miserable
Too bad it's irreversible
The others make it laughable
We've been rejected
We're no longer infected
By the nonsense
They put in our heads
We were once grounded
Now we wander mountains
With nothing to sustain
Our absurdity stayed to entertain
We were supposed to reign
We had everything
Prosperity changed into a black crow
There goes the red rose
