You are not the cynic inside my head You are the background noise You are the story of things I've left unsaid The one truth that I wanna have You are the one thing that I can't grasp The one person that I can't get You are it, the only thing I still need So are you fiction or are you real? Are you fiction or are you real? She finds a way to keep me down And I found a way to get around And as I spoke all of my thoughts She drifted off now, she broke all her trust for me So keeping it open now, looking for the defects all around 'Cause she's got a lot to say about how you are I'm keeping it open now looking for the defects all around 'Cause she's got a lot of them It's a goddamn shame, how much we go to waste? Always pointing out the faults you find in me It's a goddamn shame, how much we go to waste? Spending all our time on things we'll never change The sunset on beaches around my house This place you will never see As wolves packed the bars and streets of towns These dreams that you took from me Restaurants smell like my enemies Dance floors reek of shameless greed But I'm twisting and turning Like water from the melting snow It's a goddamn shame, how much we go to waste? Always pointing out the faults you find in me It's a goddamn shame, how much we go to waste? Spending all our time on things we'll never change You can't be happy for me but you will never walk away Broken by fantasy, sketching dreams we never made These are the things that I miss most Slumming in broken clothes Where down on the streets These werewolves grow craving the open road I got a big heart for a 'lil kid I got some big balls that's some other sh** I gotta spit the real truth before I hang it up You gotta drop it low so I can smack it up Breathe in real deep, take it in slow Emwayne baby, go ahead take the whole load If you ain't chokin', you ain't smoking, you gotta play cool We gonna blaze all day like this new school
