1.
I want the world to just stay the same To sit in your basement, and play all the games But you've gone and grown More aptly, you've changed From genuine friends to players in a game And nothing we do can go back the same Forgive me if I show any pain The monsters will come along with the rain No capes for the heroes but saving the day CHORUS: Somebody call the police cause there's been a theft of my childhood I held mistaken beliefs that we could be safe for a moment This it not dungeons & dragons It takes more than conventional weapons Somebody call the police so that there's someone there to find me I had the world tied on a string And in an instant, lost everything Lost & alone, some dangerous thing The stuff made of nightmares The once would be king
2.
CHORUS: Don't forget the hurt Remember these words The hurt is good And when the pain returns If memory serves Some hurt is good I never thought that I would find anything good After this tragedy befell me in some other neighbourhood But you needed someone and I guess that I did too I had forgotten how to feel things Until I felt something for you It felt so new It felt so good I never thought that things could change oh so fast I guess that life is ever changing, I guess the good things never last And now I've decided in my heart and in my head I'm gonna do my best to save you I'm gonna leave myself for dead You were my world My little girl Leave, leave the door open a bit
3.
I've been waiting for a moment That never comes And truth, be, told that I'm afraid of The moment it does But God I so was happy Just for one hot second The way you're looking at me Almost makes it worth it I'm going out a hero Let nothing keep you from leaving This place that you're afraid of And if I lived for just one more second I'd know you were saved from But God it was so precious These messed up little moments Was I another a footnote on one more changing channel? Or did we make a difference And did I make you happy? In these our final moments The way you're looking at me Is how I looked at you...
4.
Gotta keep those two apart Gotta keep those two apart It's just so unnatural
5.
I am the first, so I'll be the last The living we do, we do it so fast Please bury me deep, where I'll never breathe The coast to the west, is where I should be And I'll save the day And I'll fade away And I'll save the day I'll help you get away Redemption at last, redeem all my faults Yeah I just lashed out, cause that was who I was I'll give up my bones, my body all for A chance to redeem, the person I was It wasn't my fault It's not who I was I tried & I fought But it always won
6.
Okay, I admit it, I just didn't see that coming, not the least and I Am, kind of, disappointed, cause thought I figured it all out You are, so perfect, except in the way that matters most in this regard I get it, I'm a target that you just weren't aiming at I know I never get anything right... I thought I'd figured it out this time... I've made decisions, based on some backward sense of popularity And now in, the real world, it's finally catching up with me So now I'm, replacing, all of those stupid cliche ideals I could be I guess, there's a, few more before I can finally start to see I know I never get anything right But for once, you know, it might be nice This is one of those moments in your life You'd swear you would fall apart except for the fact That you're riding on a high Yeah this one of, of those realisations, right? Where you discover something about yourself Broke my heart but opened my eyes
