Me Especially

Lyrics

[Verse 1] As far as I could tell I was the center of the universe The favorite stepchild of our Mother Earth And every camera's dream 'Til something broke the spell And the cold hard facts I was hiding from Were at the mercy of a pendulum And I was smashed to smithereens [Chorus] Let's try and have some fun tonight Let's act like we got nowhere else to be Like we're just as young as we used to be That goes for everyone but me especially [Verse 2] Documents and names An eye twitch away from what they really mean In the shadow world of the in-betweens That surrounds us on all sides You can look the other way In fact, that's all I did until recently 'Til the expiration of my amnesty Left me nowhere else to hide [Chorus] Let's try and have some fun tonight Let's act like it could always be this good Like we're just as young as we used to be That goes for everyone but me especially [Bridge] A flatlining learning curve On the last leg with low reserves A desperado that lost his nerve Trying now to serve Teach me how to serve [Chorus] 'Cause we're not as young as we used to be And it goes for everyone but me especially [Outro] Why am I still the youngest guy my age? ('Cause we're not as young as we used to be) Why am I still reading the same page? I know it's hard for everyone but me especially (And it goes for everyone but me especially) And you especially
