Shut Out
With the weight of the world on my shoulders
I wonder why I even bother
These words I speak, they don't mean a thing
This fucking city wreaks with defeat
And with the words I'm singing
Your lies have my ears still ringing
For all of your free stride life plan
I'll just follow my own mind and
I knew who not to be at seventeen
The wasted nights, the wasted days
I'll ring it up and I'll waste away
I'll waste away
You take and take
Until there's nothing left of the youth
That you once had
But never bargained
Wo-oh oh oh oh
But I know that I'm scarred with the hand I was dealt
But God forbid you ever try to help
I quit
With the weight of the world on my shoulders
I'm being forced to act older
These words I speak, they don't mean a thing
This fucking city wreaks with defeat
I don't want to see you anymore
But the service I'm searching for
Makes me breath the same air as you
I'd rather sink
How many ways
Can four words say I can't stand you
Or something a little more subtle
Like some line about you driving home wasted
I think it's time you faced it
You're totally fucked and jaded
You're everything you hated
You should be so ashamed
We're so ashamed
You take and take
Until there's nothing left of the youth
That you once had
You take and take
Until there's nothing left of the youth
That you once had
But never bargained
Wo-oh oh oh oh
But I know that I'm scarred with the hand I was dealt
But God forbid you ever try to help
I quit
I wonder why I even bother
These words I speak, they don't mean a thing
This fucking city wreaks with defeat
And with the words I'm singing
Your lies have my ears still ringing
For all of your free stride life plan
I'll just follow my own mind and
I knew who not to be at seventeen
The wasted nights, the wasted days
I'll ring it up and I'll waste away
I'll waste away
You take and take
Until there's nothing left of the youth
That you once had
But never bargained
Wo-oh oh oh oh
But I know that I'm scarred with the hand I was dealt
But God forbid you ever try to help
I quit
With the weight of the world on my shoulders
I'm being forced to act older
These words I speak, they don't mean a thing
This fucking city wreaks with defeat
I don't want to see you anymore
But the service I'm searching for
Makes me breath the same air as you
I'd rather sink
How many ways
Can four words say I can't stand you
Or something a little more subtle
Like some line about you driving home wasted
I think it's time you faced it
You're totally fucked and jaded
You're everything you hated
You should be so ashamed
We're so ashamed
You take and take
Until there's nothing left of the youth
That you once had
You take and take
Until there's nothing left of the youth
That you once had
But never bargained
Wo-oh oh oh oh
But I know that I'm scarred with the hand I was dealt
But God forbid you ever try to help
I quit
