Second Place Is for Suckers
Settle, settle
Where did we change along the way?
Second place was just for suckers,
The weak or led astray
You can offer me reason why
But I'll find the liar through your eyes
In this mess we created
Promises unkept and misstated
You'll see there's more to me
But the truth is we're lost in apathy
They had no problem when they bled me dry
From keg stands to powder kegs,
All the best years of our young lives
What's it all for?
A scripted piece of paper
With a fancy f****** seal?
Cash the check to nowhere or demise
In this mess we created
Promises unkept and misstated
You'll see there's more to me
But the truth is we're lost in apathy
Maybe I should have listened
When they said to sell my soul
But what's the point of finer things
When you're never really whole?
I haven't climbed the ladder
And I haven't left this town
But sworn to die, I promise you
I'll never let this world break me down
In this mess we created
Promises unkept and misstated
You'll see there's more to me
But the truth is we're lost in apathy
Where did we change along the way?
Second place was just for suckers,
The weak or led astray
You can offer me reason why
But I'll find the liar through your eyes
In this mess we created
Promises unkept and misstated
You'll see there's more to me
But the truth is we're lost in apathy
They had no problem when they bled me dry
From keg stands to powder kegs,
All the best years of our young lives
What's it all for?
A scripted piece of paper
With a fancy f****** seal?
Cash the check to nowhere or demise
In this mess we created
Promises unkept and misstated
You'll see there's more to me
But the truth is we're lost in apathy
Maybe I should have listened
When they said to sell my soul
But what's the point of finer things
When you're never really whole?
I haven't climbed the ladder
And I haven't left this town
But sworn to die, I promise you
I'll never let this world break me down
In this mess we created
Promises unkept and misstated
You'll see there's more to me
But the truth is we're lost in apathy
