lyrics

Didn’t know what I was supposed to do, running last in the bottom two
They’re always telling me how I’m supposed to feel
Tired of coming in second place when I’m told I am the one that should have won this race
Are you really telling me now I’m supposed to kneel

They hoped you wouldn’t run too far, they never lived your life they wanna be who you are
But just because they’re older it doesn’t mean that you have to stay
You’ve gotta take what you know and love, pay every price even though it’s tough
And even if it’s hard you’ll find a voice for what you’ve gotta say

I’d never say that, I’d never say that, I’d never say it to you
Between the two of us, ill start my own line instead of joining the queue
I’d never think that, I’d never think that, I’d never think it of you
Although you meant well, you saw my whole life from your own point of view

Didn’t want to write my name in stone cause people pass and leave us on our own
I just wanna feel like I’ve done something of worth
Opportunities hesitate, you never even know you might be too late
But if I look up and try you know you my unearth

I’d never say that, I’d never say that, I’d never say it to you
Between the two of us, ill start my own line instead of joining the queue
I’d never think that, I’d never think that, I’d never think it of you
Although you meant well, you saw my whole life from your own point of view

Head in the clouds while my minds upside down
Everyone else thinks this smile is a frown
Hanging around in this vaudeville town
It’s filled up with freaks and yet I’m still the
I’m still the
I’m still the clown
