Here I am, not sure you should take a chance I like playing dumb, letting you figure me out But I was faded in my own defense So drop a bomb on all the things we dreamed about Smash all the guitars 'til we see all the stars Oh, got to throw this year away We got to throw this year away like A bad luck charm Smash all the guitars 'til we see all the stars Oh, got to throw this year away We got to throw this year away like A bad luck charm Trumpets bring the angels, but they never came And no one let them in 'cause they didn't know my name I know I keep my feelings so tucked away Just another day spent hoping we don't fall apart So drop a bomb on all the things we dreamed about Smash all the guitars 'til we see all the stars Oh, got to throw this year away We got to throw this year away like A bad luck charm Smash all the guitars 'til we see all the stars Oh, got to throw this year away We got to throw this year away like A bad luck charm So let's twist the knife again Twist the knife again like we did last summer Let's twist the knife again Twist the knife again I'm just trying to keep it together But it gets a little harder when it never gets better I'm trying to keep it together To keep it together Keep it together, no Smash all the guitars 'til we see all the stars Oh, got to throw this year away We got to throw this year away like A bad luck charm Smash all the guitars 'til we see all the stars Oh, got to throw this year away We got to throw this year away like A bad luck charm

Lost touch with my soul I had nowhere to turn I had nowhere to go Lost sight of my dream Thought it would be the end of me I, I thought I'd never make it through I had no hope to hold on to I, I thought I would break I didn't know my own strength And I crashed down And I tumbled But I did not crumble I got through all the pain I didn't know my own strength Survived my darkest hour My faith kept me alive I picked myself back up Hold my head up high I was not built to break I didn't know my own strength Found hope in my heart I found the light to life My way out of the dark Found all that I need Here inside of me I thought I'd never find my way I thought I'd never lift that weight I thought I would break I didn't know my own strength And I crashed down And I tumbled But I did not crumble I got through all the pain I didn't know my own strength Survived my darkest hour My faith kept me alive I picked myself back up Hold my head up high I was not built to break I didn't know my own strength There were so many times I Wondered how I'd get through the night, I Thought I took all that I could take Didn't know my strength And I crashed down And I tumbled But I did not crumble I got through all the pain I didn't know my own strength My faith kept me alive I pick myself back up I hold my head up high I was not built to break I didn't know my own strength I was not built to break, no, no I got to know my own strength

The lies, the weight Deceit, decay The lies, the weight It's clear I lost my way Deceit, decay Decomposing I thought I was an architect, but I was just moving dirt Stacking mud over malice covered up, forming nothing but a pile of hurt I hadn't been building (building) The time was spent digging (digging) Boring the barriers that kept others away (away) The deeper the walls, the less anyone could hear (hear me fall) So now I know there is no one else to blame Buried alive inside of my own grave And there's no one else to blame Buried alive inside of my own grave Inside of my own grave Beneath my lies Delusional enough to think I'd designed something great Like a giant headstone inscribed to describe my shameful fate I hadn't been building (building) The time was spent digging (digging) An ugly truth from which there was no way to escape (escape) Nowhere left to hide and then finally forced to face what I'd become Buried alive inside of my own grave (my grave) And there's no one else to blame Buried alive inside of my own grave (my grave) What I'd become Buried alive inside of my own grave Beneath my pride, crushing me Beneath my lies, collapsing But we are still alive We are still alive Buried alive inside of my own grave And there's no one else to blame Buried alive inside of my own grave My own grave Buried alive inside of my own grave And there's no one else to blame The lies and the weight, I know I lost my way (my way) What I'd become Buried alive inside of my own grave (my grave) And there's no one else to blame Buried alive, buried alive Finally forced to face what I'd become What I'd become in my own grave Buried in my own grave alive

I'm walking the street and I hear what you say Advising me, daring me how to play I know your name, it's called Mr. Mean One thing I've learned, you don't know beans High I fly, I touch the sky Far above the frozen hearts You can't kill my dreams You can't kill my spirit I was born to be free, yeah I walk to my own song Every day the power grows stronger in me And I walk to my own song Head up proud, I'm the master of my own destiny You think you know what is better for me Holding me lectures of how I should be Shrugging my shoulders I leave you behind Anyway I look at it you are blind High I fly, I touch the sky Far above the frozen hearts You can't kill my dreams You can't kill my spirit I was born to be free, yeah And I walk to my own song Every day the power grows stronger in me And I walk to my own song Head up proud, I'm the master of my own destiny And I walk to my own song Every day the power grows stronger in me And I walk to my own song Head up proud, I'm the master of my own destiny And I walk to my own song Every day the power grows stronger in me And I walk to my own song Head up proud, I'm the master of my own destiny

It had been going so well And then I broke my eggshell And entered the world as a brontosaurus Brontosaurus, brontosaurus Here's my entire autobiography, I was Skinny at first, then I got thick, and then back to Being skinny again like a brontosaurus Like a brontosaurus Life was devoid of purpose And so I joined the circus Somehow, they found it easy to ignore us People found it easy to ignore this Brontosaurus, brontosaurus You want to leave an impression You want to express an emotion You crave some attention And for this transgression, you'll be repaid when You fall and you fail and sink into depression It was as dark as Get Out I went and stuck my neck out Wearing an expression of optimism Optimism and bad vision Do you think this tale has gone on for too long? Join the chorus, you can join the chorus Can't cut it as an artist Maybe I'm too sensitive Who would have believed skin could be so porous? Brontosaurus skin can be so porous Brontosaurus, brontosaurus
