lyrics

here’s a story, it started with kyle
alligator boppin’ in style
it was time to make a new life, fuck it
signing up for a new kind of strife
they were neighbors with never a smile
distant judging, so juvenile
past and present were destined to jive
for a moment, we finally felt alive

bacchanalia, we’re young and we’re free
getting off on immediacy
we got stuck in a bevy of lies
it didn't stop us, we doubled in size
a couple years flew by in a haze
before we knew it, we're counting the days
til we move on from wasting away
we're getting tired of struggling to survive

we’re all special snowflakes falling hard for our own brilliance
trying not to fall behind, don’t question our existence
a messy boy with a messy life thinks he’s one in a million
the answer is predefined, but you know i’m not telling

now my teeth are yellowed and cracked
got some hair that'll never grow back
ain’t troubled with fortune and fame
doesn't matter, we’re playing the game
now i see you once in awhile
we’re still swingin’ left of the dial
we got too much to say in this life
you better tune in
the future’s looking alright...

we’re all special snowflakes falling hard for our own brilliance
trying not to fall behind, don’t question our resilience
a messy boy with a messy life thinks he’s one in a million
the answer is predefined, but you know i’m not telling

we’re all special snowflakes falling hard for our own brilliance
trying not to fall behind, don’t question our resistance
a messy boy with a messy life thinks he’s one in a million
the answer is predefined, but you know i’m not telling

get on, get on
get on, get on...
you know i'm not telling
you
