| The nicest man I ever met
|
| Was more malicious than malcontent
|
| Yeah, he taught me how to hold my tongue
|
| And wait to strike till their backs were turned
|
| And you slither away like the snake that you are
|
| Yeah, you slither away like the snake that you are
|
| All I ever did was look up to you
|
| And if all I ever did was let, let you down
|
| Ain’t nothing stopping me now
|
| Divinities fell correctly beneath
|
| The receding pride of his twenties
|
| Was capital M-E
|
| (I couldn’t self describe)
|
| Was capital M-E
|
| (But you can’t say I didn’t try)
|
| So you say what you want
|
| (Maybe I didn’t get my way)
|
| So you say what you want
|
| (Maybe I didn’t get my way)
|
| I got, I got away
|
| All I ever did was look up to you
|
| And if all I ever did was let, let you down
|
| Ain’t nothing stopping me now
|
| Was it everything you hoped for?
|
| Was it all that and more?
|
| Too much, too soon
|
| Or too good to be true
|
| Was it everything you hoped for?
|
| Was it all that and more?
|
| All I ever did was look up to you
|
| And if all I ever did was let, let you down
|
| Ain’t nothing stopping me now
|
| All I ever did was look up to you
|
| And if all I ever did was let, let you down
|
| Ain’t nothing stopping me now… |
