Time goes by too fast The mirror reflect the boy I used to be My beautiful fantasies all came to an end I don't know what to say but if there's any other way but now The pleaser of the crowd froze to take his breath I don't know the story Could you please explain how I got this way You can say it's not meant to be (Oh) I'm used to the scrutiny I'm an adolescent casualty you know me You can say it's not meant to be (Oh) I'm used to the scrutiny I'm an adolescent casualty you know me I don't know what to feel Cause nothing that feels too good ever feels too real It's all a weird complex spiel on human tendencies I don't know how to act 'cause everybody signed the pact but me I guess they all have me beat, but I know I'm not alone I don't know the story Could you please explain how I got this way? You can say it's not meant to be (Oh) I'm used to the scrutiny I'm an adolescent casualty you know me You can say it's not meant to be (Oh) I'm used to the scrutiny I'm an adolescent casualty you know me Oh no. The bells will toll when I come to find Not who I am but who I was inside You can say it's not meant to be (Oh) I'm used to the scrutiny I'm an adolescent casualty you know me You can say it's not meant to be (Oh) I'm used to the scrutiny I'm an adolescent casualty you know me
