And there you were, fixed on a distant memory
While everyone around you voted plain
You jump around us, sweet as can be
And no one knows you, so amazed inside your world
But I know that place inside of you
I couldn’t care what you bring, have to be held if the birds don’t sing
Made it this far, good for you, you’re fascinated
You are the star of the room, playing your part will dissolve real soon
Helps you survive, very true, you’re overrated
With the least amount of time, you’re the leader of the game
And without it, you’d go crazy
I would adore being you, but so often think you’re through
Any day now, you’ll lose that vanity
I’ve got the key to watch you fold
You don’t know who you are.
