Boys Will Be Poised

All eyes are staring at you, they're
Drugged up and tinted blue
They're blind from trying to see behind the smoke that you've thrown
You've got a sold-out crowd, boy
Make sure to yell real loud, boy
These pawns are lined up selling hearts that you broke, and
I'm not one to give unwanted advice
But your kiss and your fuck were good but not worth the price
You've got eyes that make up for your tongue
Don't ever trust a boy who's pride can hold up the sun

He don't wanna be
Anything less than lonely
He can't even say goodbye
No, his feet are cold
Pink lips on a Marlboro
Got buzzed on champagne and wine, I
Don't wanna be your high

One small spotlight on you, they're
Watching your every move
They're thinking you're a hero, and they want you to reign
Capes can't hide your scales, boy
Won't cover up that tail, boy
Yeah, you're no better than the dragon you've slain
I'm not one to give unwanted advice
But fuck your excuse, your figure ain't worth the price
Eyes that breathe won't make up for your lungs
Don't ever trust a boy with cinnamon on his tongue

He don't wanna be
Anything less than lonely
He can't even say goodbye
No, his feet are cold
Pink lips on a Marlboro
Got buzzed on champagne and wine, I
Don't wanna be your high

He don't wanna be
Anything less than lonely
He can't even say goodbye
No, his feet are cold
Pink lips on a Marlboro
Got buzzed on champagne and wine, oh
You, I'll take you down
Don't take much to steal your crown
You won't look me in the eye
True, tell me: do you
Like the stars they stole for you?
I ain't gonna give up my sky,
I'd rather give up and die
I'll look you dead in those eyes
I don't wanna be your high
