Arrogance of Youth
I think I know what I want
I just have to get there
And I think I know what I'm not
But I need you to make it clear
A slight divide from you to me
Can't let anybody in here
What I wouldn't give today
To see myself in ten years
Burning every bridge I build
Write this off as a bad year
I spend so much time in my head
I think I might die there
I'm paving paths but I don't know
Where I want them to lead to
I'm dreaming dreams of somewhere else
But where that is, I can't tell you
And I shouldn't find reasons why he wouldn't want me
Unwrapping myself from the finger that holds me
Picking my brain for the things that you told me
Hold my head up
But I'm tired of treading
Amalgam of feelings come when I'm drinking
Like nails on a chalkboard
Like sirens that scream
And I wish he would tell me the things that he's thinking
The arrogance of youth has me high on the ceiling
And I shouldn't find reasons why he wouldn't want me
Unwrapping myself from the finger that holds me
Picking my brain for the things that you told me
Hold my head up
But I'm tired of treading
Amalgam of feelings come when I'm drinking
Like nails on a chalkboard
Like sirens that scream
And I wish he would tell me the things that he's thinking
The arrogance of youth has me high on the ceiling
And I shouldn't find reasons why he wouldn't want me
Unwrapping myself from the finger that holds me
Picking my brain for the things that you told me
Hold my head up
But I'm tired of treading
Amalgam of feelings come when I'm drinking
Like nails on a chalkboard
Like sirens that scream
And I wish he would tell me the things that he's thinking
The arrogance of youth has me high on the ceiling
I just have to get there
And I think I know what I'm not
But I need you to make it clear
A slight divide from you to me
Can't let anybody in here
What I wouldn't give today
To see myself in ten years
Burning every bridge I build
Write this off as a bad year
I spend so much time in my head
I think I might die there
I'm paving paths but I don't know
Where I want them to lead to
I'm dreaming dreams of somewhere else
But where that is, I can't tell you
And I shouldn't find reasons why he wouldn't want me
Unwrapping myself from the finger that holds me
Picking my brain for the things that you told me
Hold my head up
But I'm tired of treading
Amalgam of feelings come when I'm drinking
Like nails on a chalkboard
Like sirens that scream
And I wish he would tell me the things that he's thinking
The arrogance of youth has me high on the ceiling
And I shouldn't find reasons why he wouldn't want me
Unwrapping myself from the finger that holds me
Picking my brain for the things that you told me
Hold my head up
But I'm tired of treading
Amalgam of feelings come when I'm drinking
Like nails on a chalkboard
Like sirens that scream
And I wish he would tell me the things that he's thinking
The arrogance of youth has me high on the ceiling
And I shouldn't find reasons why he wouldn't want me
Unwrapping myself from the finger that holds me
Picking my brain for the things that you told me
Hold my head up
But I'm tired of treading
Amalgam of feelings come when I'm drinking
Like nails on a chalkboard
Like sirens that scream
And I wish he would tell me the things that he's thinking
The arrogance of youth has me high on the ceiling
