I used to be such a burning example,

I used to be so original.

I used to care, I was being careful.

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,

The ship of fools I'm on will sink.

A millstone around my neck,

Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.



I used to pray a 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 kissed.

Now I made this bed and I can't fall asleep in it.



Take me out tonight,

The ship of fools I'm on will sink.

A millstone around my neck,

Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.



Throw me that lifeline,

The ship of fools I'm on will sink.

A millstone 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's run out in the street

Anybody know his name?

I think I recognize him

Sure it's him?

Running from that mistake



Whoa.



So take me out tonight.

The ship of fools I'm on will sink.

A millstone around my neck.

Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.



To save my life tonight.

The ship of fools I'm on will sink

A Millstone around my neck

Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.
