If the businessmen drink my blood
Like the kids in art school said they would
Then I guess I'll just begin again

You say, ?can we still be friends??

If I was scared? I would

And if I was bored? you know I would
And if I was yours? but I'm not


All the kids have always known
That the emperor wears no clothes
But they bow to down to him anyway

It's better than being alone

If I was scared? I would

And if I was bored? you know I would
And if I was yours? but I'm not


Now you're knocking at my door
Saying please come out with us tonight
But I would rather be alone

Than pretend I feel alright

If the businessmen drink my blood

Like the kids in art school said they would
Then I guess I'll just begin again
You say, ?can we still be friends??


If I was scared? I would
And if I was pure? you know I would

And if I was yours? but I'm not

Now I'm ready to start


If I was scared? I would
And if I was pure? you know I would

And if I was yours? but I'm not

Now I'm ready to start


Now I'm ready to start
I would rather be wrong

Than live in the shadows of your song
My mind is open wide
And now I'm ready to start


Now I'm ready to start
My mind is open wide

And now I'm ready to start
And I'm sure you opened the door
To step out into the dark


Now I'm ready
