Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a
Typical story where the bassist kills the singer
The guitarist and the drummer find they're in love with each other
It's the story of the kid who clearly won't know what to say
When the love of his life starts to calmly walk away
[Verse 2]
And it's the story of the dad who decides to chase his dream
He quits his job, he falls apart and he loses everything
And it's the story of the kid who just wants to make a record
Loves and crafts it but nobody ever ever cares about it
(Whoa)
[Verse 3]
Hey, hey, what's your name?
Talk is for the guys you hate
We should sit in silence while we think of what to say, hey
Hey, hey, I don't think this is working out
Will you forget I even asked you to come over to my house?
[Verse 4]
Hey, hey, I don't think I know much
But I know I couldn't take a good punch
So if you feel like I've been talking enough
Just tell me to shut up and I will probably shut the fuck up
[Verse 5]
I'm afraid of everything staying the same or worsening
So what's the point of finding calm when calm to me is unsettling?
Settle down, little kid, your bones are shaking in your skin
Go and try to take a breath though, nothing more, nothing less
[Verse 6]
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a
Typical story of the king who had it all
Except for citizens who didn't want his head upon a wall
It's the typical story of the wife who couldn't quit
Being in love with such a giant piece of shit
[Verse 7]
It's the story of the queen who could never ever think
Of any redeeming qualities a man could ever bring
It's the story of the dog who wanted to run away
Till he learned that his life is way safer inside a cage
[Verse 8]
I don't really need much, just a place to be alone
And you won't really see much, I think that I'm invisible
My mirror shows another guy, a guy who doesn't do shit
He just sits and is miserable
[Verse 9]
Everybody's gotta live a life
That they didn't ask for
Why would he put me here just to die?
Just to, just to die
[Verse 10]
Hey, hey, what's your name?
Talk is for the guys you hate
We should sit in silence while we think of what to say, hey
Hey, hey, I don't think this is working out
Will you forget I even asked you to come over to my house?
[Verse 11]
Hey, hey, I don't think I know much
But I know I couldn't take a good punch
So if you feel like I've been talking enough
Just tell me to shut up and I will probably shut the fuck up
[Verse 12]
Everybody's gotta live a life
That they didn't ask for
Why would he put me here just to die?
Just to, just to die
[Verse 13]
Hey, hey, whats your name?
Talk is for the guys you hate
We should sit in silence while we think of what to say, hey
Hey, hey, I don't think this is working out
Will you forget I even asked you to come over to my house?
[Verse 14]
Hey, hey, I don't think I know much
But I know I couldn't take a good punch
So if you feel like I've been talking enough
Just tell me to shut up and I will probably shut the fuck up
