The nicest man I ever met
Was more malicious than malcontent
Yeah, he taught me how to hold my tongue
And wait to strike 'til their backs were turned
And you slither away like the snake that you are
Yeah, you slither away like the snake that you are

All I ever did was look up to you
And if all I ever did was let, let you down
Ain't nothing stopping me now

Divinity spelt correctly beneath the receding pride of his twenties was
Capital M-E (I could've subscribed)
Was capital M-E (But you cant say I didn't try)
You say what you want (maybe I didn't get my way)
so you say what you want (maybe I didn't get my way)
I got, I got away

All I ever did was look up to you
And if all I ever did was let, let you down
Ain't nothin stopping me now

Was it everything you hoped for?
Was it all of that and more?
Too much too soon or too good to be true?
Was it everything you hoped for?
Was it all of that and more?

All I ever did was look up to you
And if all I ever did was let, let you down
Ain't nothin stopping me now

But all I ever was look up to you
And if all I ever was let, let you down
Ain't nothing stopping me now
