it takes a fool to remain sane
It kept me sane for a couple of years
as it drenched my fears
of becoming like the others
Maybe they're afraid to feel ashamed
To seem strange, to seem insane
To gain weight, to seem gay
To seem strange, to seem insane
To gain weight, to seem gay
Your my heroine, just suicide
And when I'm with you I can always act the same
Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck?
I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words
We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand
And pain is just a simple comprimise
See I'm trying to find my place
But it might not be here where I feel safe
We all learn to make mistakes
There's just too much that time cannot erase
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
This pain is just too real
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
I hate to be the one to bear the bad news
So hold your head
Hold it up high
Here's to the friends that were alibis
Keep this close by your side
When I come home we will have our night
