I used to be such a burning example,
I used to be so original.
I used to care, I was being cared for.
Made sure I showed it to those that I love.

I used to sleep without a single stir,
‘Cause I was about my father’s work.

Well take me out tonight,
This ship of fools I’m on will sink.
A milestone around my neck,
Be my breath, there’s nothing I wouldn’t give.

I used to pray like God was listening.
I used to make my parents proud.
I was the glue that kept my friends together,
Now they don’t talk and we don’t go out.

I used to know the name of every person I’d kissed.
Now I made this bed and I can’t fall asleep in it.

Well take me out tonight,
This ship of fools I’m on will sink.
A milestone around my neck,
Be my breath, there’s nothing I wouldn’t give.

Throw me that lifeline,
This ship of fools I’m on will sink.
A milestone around my neck
Be my breath, there’s nothing I wouldn’t give.

Never hit the brakes
there’s no time to save him,
He just ran out in the street
anybody know his name?
I think I recognize him
Sure as hell paid for that mistake

Woah.

So take me out tonight.
This ship of fools I’m on will sink.
A milestone around my neck.
Be my breath, there’s nothing I wouldn’t give.

To save my life tonight.
This ship of fools I’m on will sink
A milestone around my neck
Be my breath, there’s nothing I wouldn’t give.
