It's best to not be him at all
It's best not to be him at all
Your teachers say
Your teachers say
The toxins in the air will take your life away
The toxins in the air will take your life away
But don't believe a word from them
But don't believe a word from them
You'll be ok
You'll be ok
For I will be with you
For I will be with you
You can't afford to show your face
You can't afford to show your face
And smile back
And smile back
This spark of a new love can cause a heart attack
This spark of a new love can cause a heart attack
So leave me here to smile
So leave me here to smile
Until my teeth turn black
Until my teeth turn black
And I will grieve for you
And I will grieve for you
And in the coming years
And in the coming years
We all will disappear
We will all disappear
Into the clouds then rainbows form
Into the clouds then rainbows form
And if we make believe
And if we make believe
That eyes create the seas
That eyes create the seas
We'll feel less worrisome
We'll feel less worrisome
I can't pretend to know what song I might have sung
I can't pretend to know what song I might have sung
Was told when I was young
Was told when I was young
That I'd meet the lord
That I'd met the lord
But sitting here in class
But sitting here in class
That talk just makes me bored
That talk just makes me bored
While others nod their heads
While others nod their heads
I've always felt this distance I could not explain
I've always felt this distance I couldn't explain
I've chalked it up as something wrong inside my brain
I've chalked it up as something wrong inside my brain
But maybe we're all lost
But maybe we're all lost
Since we all bleed the same
Since we all bleed the same
Remember what I said
Remember what I said
That in the coming years
That in the coming years
We all will disappear
We will all disappear
Into the clouds then rainbows form
Into the clouds then rainbows form
And if we make believe
And if we make believe
That eyes create the seas
That eyes create the seas
We'll feel less worrisome
We'll feel less worrisome
