Nightmare Of You Lyrics

2. Dear Scene, I Wish I Were Deaf

You were one step behind in that dismal school of mine 
Needle and percocet instead of books on students desks 
We were so charming, but the future was alarming 
but now don't you go look so proud 
Yes, guess who's laughing now? 

And we've learned that life is one big game 
Where the winners are all getting paid 
So stop dragging your feet behind 
You can't live with the folks all your life 
So on those days home in your car 
We jerked the steering wheel to the median 
Joking that we'd end our lives 
But we weren't joking all the time 

"Start a band or throw a brick" 
You lazy hipsters make me sick 
Don't clap your hands; don't start to dance 
Don't let them know that you're a fan 

You may be living in Manhattan 
But where are you really from? (Have you forgotten?) 
Kid, you may be playing your music loud 
But it's drowned out by your mouth
