[00:19.95] You know me, I used to get caught up in everyday life
[00:23.25] Tried to make it through my day so i could sleep at night
[00:25.97] Tried to figure out my way through the maze
[00:27.87] Of rights and wrongs, but like you used to say
[00:30.32] Nothing feels like it's really worth it
[00:32.20] Forget perfect, i'm trying not to be worthless
[00:34.73] Since i last saw you i been lookin for a purpose
[00:37.47] Well i met this kid who thought like i did
[00:39.94] He had a weird way of lookin at it
[00:41.57] This is what he said
[00:42.46]
[00:42.88] Slip out the back before they know you were there
[00:45.16] And at the worst you'll see nobody cares
[00:47.84] Cos you dont wana be around when it all goes down
[00:50.47] Even heroes know when to be scared
[00:53.44] Slip out the back before they know you were there
[00:55.79] And at the worst you'll see nobody cares
[00:58.52] Cos you dont wana be around when it all goes down
[01:01.10] Even heroes know when to be scared
[01:03.17]
[01:03.79] I dont remember where i met him or remember his name
[01:06.42] But he walked funny like he was too big for his frame
[01:09.39] Just over five foot but he weighed a buck fifty
[01:12.14] And what he said just seemed so right it stuck with me
[01:14.77] Listen its like poker you can play your best
[01:17.07] But you got to know when to fold your cards and take a rest
[01:20.15] And know when to hold your cards and hold your breath
[01:22.70] And hope that nobody else is stacking the deck because
[01:25.76] I dont need to tell you that life isnt fair, it doesnt care
[01:28.60] It momentarily cuts off your air,
[01:30.54] and like you i want someone to say its okay
[01:33.07] But in the truest parts of our hearts everybody's afraid
[01:35.79] But just underappreciated and overwhelmed
[01:38.45] Fighting so hard to hide our fear that were scaring ourselves
[01:41.17] You understand when im saying that you always did
[01:43.83] But its different in the words of a cowardly kid
[01:46.42]
[01:46.77] Slip out the back before they know you were there
[01:49.26] And at the worst you'll see nobody cares
[01:51.73] Cos you dont wana be around when it all goes down
[01:54.59] Even heroes know when to be scared
[01:57.42] Slip out the back before they know you were there
[01:59.83] And at the worst you'll see nobody cares
[02:02.43] Cos you dont wana be around when it all goes down
[02:05.11] Even heroes know when to be scared
[02:07.27]
[02:07.73] Im no hero, you remember how i was, you know
[02:10.52] All i ever did was worry, feeling out of control
[02:13.18] To the point where everything was going end over end
[02:15.80] Im spinning around in circles again
[02:17.83] This is where you come in
[02:19.30] All of this to explain to you why
[02:21.25] I had to separate myself away from yesterday's life
[02:23.74] Please remember this isn't how i hoped it would be
[02:26.56] But i had to protect you from me
[02:28.84] Thats why i slipped out the back before you knew i was there
[02:32.05] I know you felt unprepared
[02:34.22] But every single time i was around i just bring you down
[02:37.13] And i could tell that it was time to be scared
[02:39.35] Thats why i slipped out the back before you knew i was there
[02:42.62] And i know the way i left wasnt fair
[02:45.23] I didnt want to be around just to bring you down
[02:47.78] Im not a hero but dont think i didnt care
[02:50.10]
[03:01.49]
