My best excuse to make an impression
At the peak where we collide
I'll act out the scene prior to art again
Before I show up late
Cue the lights
Surrender my valor
And whatever you hold dear
I can forget my name
Hands shaking faster
And now the words I wish you'd hear
Left breathless with good posture
For what it's worth to us now
Forget me, you're better off alone
A spectacle and you need it
I settle the days much worse than this
Forget me, you're better off alone
Lower my eyes
Gaze at the floor
While holding my head up high
It makes it easy to stare
I try to focus my ears on a quiet serenade
I hold myself exempt
For a minute, concerned
Might make me useful to persist
But can't compromise on simple papers
That marvel of an open fist
Left breathless with good posture
For what it's worth to us now
Forget me, you're better off alone
A spectacle and you need it
I settle the days much worse than this
Forget me, you're better off alone
I'm faking concern
From what I've learned,
He's more than you could do without
I can't pin my lungs and bite my tongue
Induce what I might soon forget
(I might spare right there)
And I can take it all
I wasn't pressed for words
I can take it all
And leave it breathless
And I can take it all
I wasn't pressed for words
I can take it all
And leave you breathless
