Joke me something awful just like kisses on the necks of
"Just friends",
We're the kids who feel like dead ends
And I want to be known for my hits, Not just my misses,
I took a shot and didn't even come close.

At trust and love and hope...
And the poets are just kids who didn't make it,
Who never had it at all

And the record won't stop skipping,
And the lies just won't stop slipping,
And besides my reputation's on the line

We can fake it for the airwaves,
Force our smiles, baby, half dead,
From comparing myself
To everyone else around me

Please put the doctor on the phone,
Because I'm not making any sense
Blame everyone but me for this mess,
And my back has been breaking from this heavy heart
We never seemed so far
I'm hopelessly hopeful, that you're just hopeless enough,
But we never had it at all

And the record won't stop skipping,
And the lies just won't stop slipping,
And besides my reputation's on the line

We can fake it for the airwaves,
Force our smiles, baby, half dead,
From comparing myself
To everyone else around me...

To everyone else around me,
Everyone else around me ...

The poets are just the kids who didn’t make it.
