Some might say it's over rated,
staring at their shoes. Y
ou're arrows don't have poison but they bruise.
I can't make peace with you.
All my heart is on these pages,
open to abuse.
I should try to be dishonest but I lose.
It's never been for you.
Angry eyes, there's poison in the ink.
You've got so much time to think about it.
Try to put your finger on it
and figure out what's right for me and mine.
Expletives and explanations fade bruise colored blue.
A thicker skin develops on the wound.
I won't change it for you.
I'm just telling the truth.I don't wanna say goodbye
There are some who believe that I owe them something
But they're wrong, I owe nothing to no one but myself
And there are some who say they created me
But only my parents will have that acclaim
I took it from there, I am to blame
Chorus:
Say goodbye to anonymity
I have to [have to, have to] say goodbye
To privacy, but most of all
To innocence (repeat 3 times)
My life is not a game that I play to entertain you
And if you can do it better, then you're welcome to my fame
I'm not gonna waste my time correcting myths and rumors
You believe what you wanna believe
(chorus)
I don't wanna say goodbye
I don't need a reason to cry
Kinda makes me wanna
Kinda makes me hafta
Stop and think about it (repeat 3 times)
Do I want to?
I don't [getting up and down]
I don't [getting up and down]
I don't [getting down and up]
Up-up, d-d-down, up-up-up
I don't [getting up and down]
I don't [getting up and down]
I don't [getting up and down]
Up-up, d-d-down, up-up-up
Listen up
It always comes down to this (repeat)
Some people have a snake at the base of their spine
That would suck out your life, that would take all your time
They're called feeders
They're not believers but you must not fear it
They're takers
You know you better stop, stop and think about it (repeat 3 times)
Your innocence (repeat 3 times)
I don't wanna say goodbye to innocence
I don't need a reason to cry, innocence
Hold on to your innocence
Hold on [hold on, hold on], hold on to innocence
Hold on
Stop and think about it, say goodbye, think about it (repeat twice)
