Bad Influence
My father showed me right from wrong
My mother taught me not to swear
Watch out for riff-raff on the streets
Who run around without a care
You hung my picture on the wall
I followed through so god damn long
What are we to do 20 years later
When the lessons were wrong?
And I'm sorry
I'm just another failed burnout
The friends I've garnered through these years
Are the friends you've warned about
But I don't accept this role
'Cause the man under the glass
Would fight for love
This true life hero belongs to the underclass
My friends all smoke, I drink a ton
We all have problems holding our tongues
They warned about us in our classes
Back when I was blackout drunk
We're not this way because were bad
Self-deprecation's all we have
It's just so hard to get back
All the motivations that we lack
And I'm sorry
I'm just another failed burnout
The friends I've garnered through these years
Are the friends you've warned about
But I don't accept this role
'Cause the man under the glass
Would fight for love
This true life hero belongs to the underclass
What are we supposed to do?
Your perfect picture's gone askew
What are we supposed to be?
The monsters in your head are free
And I'm sorry
I'm just another failed burnout
The friends I've garnered through these years
Are the friends you've warned about
But I don't accept this role
'Cause the man under the glass
Would fight for love
This true life hero belongs to the underclass
You wanted more?
You wanted more?
You wanted more?
We'll give you more
My mother taught me not to swear
Watch out for riff-raff on the streets
Who run around without a care
You hung my picture on the wall
I followed through so god damn long
What are we to do 20 years later
When the lessons were wrong?
And I'm sorry
I'm just another failed burnout
The friends I've garnered through these years
Are the friends you've warned about
But I don't accept this role
'Cause the man under the glass
Would fight for love
This true life hero belongs to the underclass
My friends all smoke, I drink a ton
We all have problems holding our tongues
They warned about us in our classes
Back when I was blackout drunk
We're not this way because were bad
Self-deprecation's all we have
It's just so hard to get back
All the motivations that we lack
And I'm sorry
I'm just another failed burnout
The friends I've garnered through these years
Are the friends you've warned about
But I don't accept this role
'Cause the man under the glass
Would fight for love
This true life hero belongs to the underclass
What are we supposed to do?
Your perfect picture's gone askew
What are we supposed to be?
The monsters in your head are free
And I'm sorry
I'm just another failed burnout
The friends I've garnered through these years
Are the friends you've warned about
But I don't accept this role
'Cause the man under the glass
Would fight for love
This true life hero belongs to the underclass
You wanted more?
You wanted more?
You wanted more?
We'll give you more
