The nicest man I ever met Was more malicious than malcontent Yeah, he taught me how to hold my tongue And wait to strike till their backs were turned And you slither away like the snake that you are Yeah, you slither away like the snake that you are
All I ever did was look up to you And if all I ever did was let, let you down Ain't nothing stopping me now
Divinities fell correctly beneath The receding pride of his twenties Was capital M-E (I couldn't self describe) Was capital M-E (But you can't say I didn't try)
So you say what you want (Maybe I didn't get my way) So you say what you want (Maybe I didn't get my way) I got, I got away
All I ever did was look up to you And if all I ever did was let, let you down Ain't nothing stopping me now
Was it everything you hoped for? Was it all that and more? Too much, too soon Or too good to be true Was it everything you hoped for? Was it all that and more?
All I ever did was look up to you And if all I ever did was let, let you down Ain't nothing stopping me now All I ever did was look up to you And if all I ever did was let, let you down Ain't nothing stopping me now...
