I heard the worst excuses that anyone could forge
I’ve collected them from every line of misheard words
And I think I can label myself the champion
Nothings a letdown when you feel so prestigious

Oh no, I think I came down too easy once again
It’s not like I’m supposed to take like a man
When arms and legs have still been shaking
I don’t know how anyone can stay cool under this

I’m not sure how you see my vulnerability
Is my heart exposed through this skin
Well, anyone else’s guess is as good as mine
And you said “It's not what you say,
but the way you say it.”
I don’t know, I just don’t know
An act of cleverness that I can’t conceive
Gotten past my guard once again.
