There′s a song in my head

Oh, a line that never stops playing

I'm not sure how it ends

I can′t remember when I heard what you were saying

I'll make the best out of the worst

I'll make up half the words and wear a t-shirt of a band I′ve never heard

Because it hurts to be on the outside looking in

Well, I do my best to listen

But I′m uncomfortable with too much silence

From the passenger seat you said "What does that mean?"

I said "I'm learning to live with the violence, violence"

But I′m not the kind that

Wants to be lost

I don't want to be forgotten

I don′t want to pretend

That it's alright

I want to see these walls

Crumble and dissolve around

I got my golden diploma wearing a square crown

The Class of ′14 wore their capes like a reverend's gown

All that education won't help us now

Attending funerals and watching friends break their vows

There′s not much that I can protect

So I keep my good humor alive

Nothing disturbs your intellect

Like the feeling of something you can′t deny

Justified

I don't want to be lost

I don′t want to be forgotten

I don't want to pretend

That it′s alright

I want to see these walls

Crumble and dissolve around me

Saturday morning, 11 a.m.

Heard mom and dad talking money again

Fit a seven-person family in a five-seater van

I guess all you can do is the best that you can

Dad pushed it all down like the Gibson in his hand

To finish that song that never had a name

I can still hear that song

In my head (In my head)

Information, education, giving and love

Questions, guidance, that's sugar in my blood

Holding together what′s meant to fall apart

Justify the reason for the way things are

I don't want to be lost

I don't want to be forgotten

I′ve got reason to believe

That I just might

Watch this city′s walls

Crumble and dissolve around me

I'm not afraid, afraid to lose

It′s a voice that I can't refuse

Maybe I don′t have the right to choose what calls my name
