about

From our record called Bailout!

lyrics

It's not a rule. I said, it's not a rule.

You're not as hot as you think you are
Real life doesn't work that way
You're not as hot as you think you are
Maybe you'll figure it out one day

Drawing a line
Cross the sand with your hand
You've made a decision
Crawling inside
As you race on to face
The great collision
Living a lie
Cuz you think you can shrink
The final impact
Break down and cry
At the shame in your name
On your final lookback

It didn't turn out
Like you thought it would
It never does baby
