Are these words working do they work for you? Is there something wrong between us? Is there something I can do? Is there some way I can take back all the times you threw away? Been burning up the decade when you should've seized the day I wonder why you're talking 'cause you're talking all the time Will you ever get the message and just leave it all behind The conversation's trivial but trivial is fine When held up to the light Do you think my personality is written in stone? Are you positively certain that you know what you've been shown I'm a snapshot of the person that you think I ought to be Now give it up! Give it up! Give it up! I been the leader, I've been the follower I've been the dreamer, I've been the wallflower I take the high road, I take the low road Don't wanna be your mother I've been down, boys, I've been down boys Been right to the top When you hear me coming you can hear a pin drop Didn't mean to be annoying, didn't mean to make a mess Never meant to cast a shadow but it's leading me to stress The shrapnel from your heart is buried in my chest And its 'not all me Do you think my personality is written in stone? Are you positively certain that you know what you've been shown I'm a snapshot of the person that you think I ought to be Now give it up! Give it up! Give it up!
