Written by Dann Gallucci, Joe Plummer, Matt Maust, Matthew Schwartz, Nathan Willett

Cheated and lied, broken so bad You made a vow, never get mad You play the game, though it's unfair They're all the same, who can compare? First you lose trust, then you get worried

Night after night, bar after club Dropping like flies, who woke you up On the front lawn, sprinklers turned on It's not your house, where'd you go wrong? First you get hurt, then you feel sorry

Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth Heavy as a feather when, you hit the dirt How am I the lucky one?, I do not deserve To wait around forever when, you were there first First you get hurt, then you feel sorry

There comes a time, in a short life Turn it around, get a rewrite Call it a dark, night of the soul Ticking of clocks, gravity's pull First you get close, then you get worried

Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth Heavy as a feather when, you hit the dirt How am I the lucky one?, I do not deserve To wait around forever when, you were there first First you get hurt, then you feel sorry

You're going silent, the silent treatment It's not inviting now, don't deny what you meant You get excited, you get excited You got a feel it, oh, at least you can pretend You wanna light it, you wanna light it You wanna light it now, the candle from both ends You get excited, you get excited

Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth Heavy as a feather when, you hit the dirt How am I the lucky one?, I do not deserve To wait around forever when, you were there first Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth Heavy as a feather when, you hit the dirt How am I the lucky one?, I do not deserve To wait around forever when, you were there first

First you get close, then you get worried First you get close, then you get worried First you get close, then you get worried First you get close, then you get worried

You wanna light it, you wanna light it You wanna light it now, the candle from both ends You wanna light it, you wanna light it You wanna light it now, the candle from both ends
