You know me, I used to get caught up in everyday life Tryin' to make it through my day So I can sleep at night Tryin' to figure out my way Through the maze of rights and wrongs But like you used to say Nothing feels like it's really worth it Forget perfect I'm tryin' not to be worthless Since I last saw you I've been lookin' for a purpose Well, I met this kid who thought like I did He had a weird way of lookin' at it, This is what he said: Slip out the back before they know you were there At the worst you'll see nobody cares 'Cause you don't wanna be around when it all goes down Even heroes know when to be scared Slip out the back before they know you were there At the worst you'll see nobody cares 'Cause you don't wanna be around when it all goes down Even heroes know when to be scared Now, I don't remember where I met him Or remember his name But he walked funny, like he was just to big for his frame Just over 5 foot, but he weighed a buck fifty And what he said seemed so right, it stuck with me Listen, It's like poker; you can play your best, But you gotta know when to fold your cards And take a rest And know when to hold your cards, hold your breath And hope that nobody else is stackin' the deck Because, I don't need to tell you that life isn't fair, It doesn't care it arbitrarily cuts off your air, And like you, I want someone to say it's ok In the truest part of their harts everybody's afraid We're just Under-appreciated and overwhelmed Fightin' so hard to hide our fear that we're scaring ourselves, You understand what I'm sayin', 'Cause you always did, But it's different in the words of a cowardly kid, Who said: Slip out the back before they know you were there At the worst you'll see nobody cares 'Cause you don't wanna be around when it all goes down Even heroes know when to be scared Slip out the back before they know you were there At the worst you'll see nobody cares 'Cause you don't wanna be around when it all goes down Even heroes know when to be scared And I'm no hero, You remember how it was, you know, All I ever did was worry feelin' out of control To the point where everything is going End over end I'm spinnin' around in circles again, This is where you come in All of this to explain to you why I had to separate myself away from yesterday's life Please remember, This isn't how I hoped it would be But I had to protect you from me That's why I Slipped out the back before you knew I was there I know you felt unprepared But every single time I was around I just bring you down And I could tell that it was time to be scared That's why I slipped out the back before you knew I was there And I know the way I left wasn't fair, I didn't want to be around just to bring you down I'm not a hero, but don't think I didn't care
