Are we growing up or just going down? It's just a matter of time until we're all found out Take our tears, put 'em on ice 'Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light We're the therapists pumping through your speakers Delivering just what you need We're well-read and poised We're the best boys We're the chemists who've found the formula To make your heart swell and burst No matter what they say, don't believe a word 'Cause I'll keep singing this lie if you'll keep believing it I'll keep singing this lie I'll keep singing this lie Are we growing up or just going down? It's just a matter of time until we're all found out Take our tears, put 'em on ice 'Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light We're traveled like gypsies Only with worse luck and far less gold We're the kids you used to love But then we grew old We're the lifers here til 'the bitter end Condemned from the start Ashamed of the way The songs and the words own the beating of our hearts 'Cause I'll keep singing this lie I'll keep singing this lie Are we growing up or just going down? It's just a matter of time until we're all found out Take our tears, put them on ice 'Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light There's a drug in the thermostat to warm the room up And there's another around to help us bend your trust Got a sunset in my veins And I need to take a pill to make this town feel okay The best part of "believe" is the "lie" I hope you sing along and you steal a line I need to keep you like this in my mind So give in or just give up The best part of "believe" is the "lie" I hope you sing along and you steal a line I need to keep you like this in my mind So give in or just give up Are we growing up or just going down? Are we growing up or just going down? It's just a matter of time until we're all found out Take our tears, put them on ice 'Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light
