My mind's eye will and, or can lie
Through body-dysmorphic teeth
And that's what it's like to open your eyes post-surgery
Fucking bloody
I'm the one who answers the questions first
Screams so oh my capillaries burst
Sing so bad my sensibilities hurt
Poor alpha me
Pour it out for me
Tell me that I'm classic, baby
Tell history I'm great
Beg for my best behaviour
Oo, then wait
I could lose myself in your pretty face
If we weren't shooting for the money today
Like oh
Like oh
I'm the classic protagonist baby
Love me anyway
Well my dreams didn't prepare me to be
So good at watching tv
Damn sure how insecure I am
Can't speak but for poetry
When the aliens come to take me home
Blame the made-up man for War Three
But in the end, though remote, I hope
Baby it's just you and me
Tell me that I'm classic, baby
It's not the same as great
Beg for my best behaviour
Oo, then wait
I could lose myself in your pretty face
If we weren't shooting for the money today
Like oh
Like oh
I'm the classic protagonist baby
Love me anyway
Trying so hard to be cool
Like we can pretend that this won't hurt
And I don't have all the answers
But I can vandalize your shirt
Can of spray paint and red headlights
Like man, let's get to work
I don't have all the answers
But I can vandalize your shirt
So tell me that I'm classic, baby
'Cause history will say I'm great
Beg for my best behaviour
Oo, then wait
I could lose myself in your pretty face
If we weren't shooting for the money today
Like oh
Like oh
I'm the classic protagonist baby
Love me anyway
