[00:11.300]Joke me something awful
[00:13.800]Just like kisses on the necks of "just friends"
[00:18.980]We're the kids who feel like dead ends
[00:24.720]And I want to be known for my hits
[00:28.900]Not just my misses
[00:30.890]I took a shot and didn't even come close
[00:37.570]At trust and love and hope
[00:43.500]And the poets are just kids who didn't make it
[00:49.860]Who never had it at all

[00:58.790]And the lies just won't stop slipping
[01:01.910]And besides my reputation's on the line
[01:07.270]We can fake it for the airwaves
[01:11.450]Force our smiles baby half dead
[01:14.570]From comparing myself to everyone else around me
[01:32.480]Please put the doctor on the phone
[01:36.100]Because I'm not making any sense
[01:39.100]Blame everyone but me for this mess

[01:51.890]We never seemed so far
[01:58.70]I'm hopelessly hopeful
[02:01.120]You're just hopeless enough

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
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
