The First Punch

This world is about to change

Look into my eyes and write down the words you taste

Blood on your tongue with a crass embrace

A photo kiss on the day we met said "This will be a night we won't forget"

Speak slow now, I don't wanna miss when you cry

Glass over diamond blue eyes

And it's good enough to make me wanna fall in love

So move a little bit closer, hear the sound of your voice

We're screaming, "Why can't we just be friends?"

It's not that easy but it's half of the fun to see you throw the first punch

Now it's such a shame you had to go and run your mouth

Your mouth is what you make it

But at least I've got real friends

Can you hear me now?

Now that I'm a big star

Fuck you and your new love for yourself

It don't mean shit

And it's good enough to make to make me wanna fall in love

So move a little bit close, hear the sound of your voice

We're screaming, "Why can't we just be friends?"

It's not that easy but it's half of the fun to see you throw the first punch now

I've got so much to give but I would kill just to feel less invisible

And you've got so much to learn about gravity, so live it up baby, don't look down

And it's good enough to make me wanna fall in love

So move a little bit closer, hear the sound of your voice

We're screaming, "Why can't we just be friends?"

It's not that easy but it's half of the fun

And I saw it comin' when you threw the first punch

You threw the first punch

Now it's your turn to run

This is the breath that will take my life

There's no future but matches and propane

And through the mutated words I write

Kill it fast and never watch it die
