On the steps of the palace He's a very smart Prince He's a Prince who prepares Knowing this time I'd run from him He spread pitch on the stairs And I'm caught unawares Well it means that he cares This is more than just malice Better stop and take stock

But it don't work like that You just gotta watch it fly Stand there on the side lines Go on and swallow your pride You know it's gonna be alright Wish it well and close your eyes With a kiss goodbye It's all that you want back When you lose somethin'

Feels like my life is ready to blow Me and my love we'll take it slow I hope she knows that I'll love her long I just don't know where the hell I belong She remembers my name How optimism led me astray Two hundred things I took the wrong way But I saw

It's getting closer now We're better off without you Feel the pressure I can feel the pressure Feeling empty, I can Some things I'll never know And I had to let them go Tell me where our time went And if it was time well spent

Tonight we’ll just get drunk Disturb the peace And then you bite your lip Whisper and say, “We’re going all the way” Tonight, take me to the other side Just take me to the other side I see that sexy look in your eyes And I know, we ain’t friends anymore

Oh well, I'm ignorant But not to the fact that I'm ignorant, of course I know that, I'm indifferent I don't care to know what I don't I don't care 'til I'm coming home And my dad tell me some shit about when he my age, he was doing shit Protesting about

Don't you know you're standing in the way of the light? Turn night into day Pour oil on these flames Speed up my heart again There's still a way to make it right We'll find the strength this time And pull back this veil So come on, come on, come on
