Sophmore Slump or Comeback of the Year

Are we growing up or just going down?
It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
Take our tears, put 'em on ice
'Cause I swear, I'd burn this city down to show you the light

We're the therapists, pumping through your speakers
Delivering just what you need
We're well-read and poised
We're the best boys

We're the chemists who found the formula
To make your heart
Swell and burst
No matter what they say, don't believe a word

'Cause I'll keep singing this lie
If you keep believing it
I'll keep singing this lie
I'll keep singing this lie

Are we growing up or just going down?
It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
Take our tears, put 'em on ice
'Cause I swear, I'd burn this city down to show you the light

We travel like gypsies only
With worse luck and far less gold
We're the kids you used to love
But then we grew old

We're the lifers, here 'til the bitter end
Condemned from the start
Ashamed of the way the songs and the words
Own the beating of our hearts

'Cause I'll keep singing this lie
I'll keep singing this lie

Are we growing up or just going down?
It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
Take our tears, put 'em on ice
'Cause I swear, I'd burn this city down to show you the light

And there's a drug in the thermostat to warm the room up
And there's another around to have us bend your trust
Got a sunset in my veins
And I need to take a pill to make this town feel okay

The best part of "believe" is the lie
I hope you sing along and you steal a line
I need to keep you like this in my mind
So give in our just give up

The best part of "believe" is the lie
I hope you sing along and you steal a line
I need to keep you like this in my mind
So give in our just give up

Are we growing up or just going down?
Are we growing up or just going down?
It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
Take our tears, put 'em on ice
'Cause I swear, I'd burn this city down to show you the light
