lyrics

You can miss me
I reciprocate cautiously
While you’ve given me nightmares
Turned my white flag red
I’m not your freak, I’m not your geek
Or somewhere in between
I’m not your art
You make me sick not weak

Using me, using me
So, you can feel strong, innocent, and pure
When I’ve been straight edge
I’m not a scale to measure
You don’t care as long as they’re calling

I don’t have to go anywhere to be alone
Pain is the only comfort I’ve ever known
Kept me young, on my toes
The only constant to catch me
It’s the irony
No, I’m not fooled
Your ways ridicule
You don’t get it and you never will

I don’t want to win anymore
I know what the prize is and what it means
But I want more
You won’t catch me vulnerable
No one is deserving
It’s all a show
It’s always been a show
For the imaginary audience
But you still have no imagination

Conformity wouldn’t make us match
No getting past this
Under a microscope

You can miss me
I reciprocate cautiously
While you’ve given me nightmares
Turned my white flag red
I’m not your freak, I’m not your geek
Or somewhere in between
I’m not your art, what you make of me
You make me sick not weak


Using me, using me, as a toy
So, you can feel strong, innocent, and pure
When I’ve been straight edge
I’m not a scale to measure
You don’t care as long as they’re calling

I don’t have to go anywhere to be alone
Pain is the only comfort I’ve ever known
Kept me young, on my toes
The only constant to catch me
It’s the irony
No, I’m not fooled
Your ways ridicule
You don’t get it and you never will
