Lyrics

He likes to act like he's all grown up
 He wanted to grow up to be an actor
 But he never told anybody
 He likes to spill all of his guts
 On the top of a well stocked bar
 And then swallow them bit by bit
 Remembering every scar
 It's a valid reason for every drink
 And a new tattoo is a new reason to think
 He likes to pretend that he's all sewn up
 It makes for a much stronger case
 But there's blood underneath that skin
 That scar is not so easy to erase
 He walks with a glass cane now
 He's careful when holding his body up straight
 Can't go outside anywmore when it's raining
 Can't smash up that beautiful face
 Another innocent girl just made his list
 That self pity shit, it's just too hard too resist
 Yeah, when we get home, you'll see
 That this part of him is now part of me
 He likes to act like he's all grown up
 He wanted to grow up to be an actor
 But he never told anybody
 He likes to spill all of his guts
 On the top of a well stocked bar
 And then swallow them bit by bit
 Remembering every scar
 It's a valid reason for stronger drinks
 And a new tattoo is a new reason to think
 Yeah, when we get home, you'll see
 That this part of him is now part of me
 Yeah, when we get home, you'll see
 That this part of him is controlling me
 Yeah, it's way too easy to fake this smile lead you on
 Maybe I'm wrong but everyone gets bored once in awhile
