Lyrics

[00:00.280] You, with your words like knives and swords and weapons that you use against me
[00:05.750] You, have knocked me off my feet again, got me feeling like a nothing
[00:11.840] You, with your voice like nails on a chalk board calling me out when I'm winded
[00:17.840] You, picking on the weaker man.
[00:24.640] You can take me down, with just one single blow
[00:31.880] But you don't know, what you don't know
[00:35.090] Some day, I'll be living in a big ole city
[00:40.860] And all you're ever gonna be is mean
[00:46.820] Some day, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
[00:52.460] And all you're ever gonna be is mean, why you gotta be so mean?
[01:04.480] You, with your switching sides and your wildfire lies and your humilation
[01:10.330] You, have pointed out my flaws again as if I don't already see them
[01:16.590] I walk with my head down tryna block you out, cause I'll never impress you
[01:22.110] I just wanna feel okay again
[01:28.400] I bet you got pushed around, somebody made you cold
[01:34.150] But the cycle ends right now, cause you can't lead me down that road
[01:39.390] And you don't know, what you don't know
[01:42.470] Some day, I'll be living in a big ole city
[01:48.120] And all you're ever gonna be is mean
[01:54.200] Some day, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
[01:59.790] And all you're ever gonna be is mean, why you gotta be so mean?
[02:16.700] And I can see you years from now in a bar talking over a football game
[02:23.800] With that same big, loud opinion but nobody's listening
[02:29.780] Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things
[02:38.130] Drunk and rumbling on about how I can't sing, but all you are is mean
[02:49.310] All you are is mean, and a liar, and pathetic, and alone in life,
[02:56.990] And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean
[03:02.630] But some day, I'll be living in a big ole city
[03:08.620] And all you're ever gonna be is mean. Yeah
[03:14.790] Some day, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
[03:20.210] And all you're ever gonna be is mean, why you gotta be so mean?
[03:26.930] Some day, I'll be living in a big ole city
[03:32.550] And all you're ever gonna be is mean
[03:38.230] Some day, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
[03:43.770] And all you're ever gonna be is mean, why you gotta be so mean?
