You could never really win not to say you're born to lose you were born to take 10th place, out of 20 in the field Mistakes flow through your veins in a mediocre way
Your life's a living hell You've got gremlins in your blood cells and monsters in your bed They're haunting you again oh it must be this place at least that's what you say, say, say
You don't love you anymore Cast your demons aside keep them close enough to know what you're running from Soon you won't feel this anymore cast your demons aside Keep them close enough to know that you're moving on
The fire used to burn in your heart and in your eyes You used to dream you used to care you used to love you used to fight for anything at all You cover up your bedroom wall with who you want to be Now you're afraid to be yourself so you search the mall for something else You read magazines and watch MTV You practiced it and everything oh your dressed to impress but you look like a drag queen
So keep your head up high Stretch inches into miles because Brooklyn wasn't built in just a day Focus on important things Be your own gun like every ghost that held you down was gone Keep them close enough to know that you're moving on
