Emo Paradise

As I walk in the corner in the shadows alone,

I take a look at my life and realize she's gone.

Cause I've been crying and crying so long that even my mama thinks my mind is gone.

But I haven't ever crossed a boy that didn't deserve it.

Me being treated like a loser, you know that's unheard of.

I better watch i'm talking and where I'm walking,

Or i might just end up with tears falling like stars from my eyes.

I really hate to say but I'm all alone,

As I play cracks in the sky I see myself in the mirror.

I'm the kinda emo kid no one wants to be like,

On my knees in the night, crying quiet in the street light.

Been spending most of our lives, living in the emo paradise.

Look at the situation she got me facing:

I can't live a normal life, I was raised by Dashboard Confessional

So I gotta be down with the cool kids,

Too much television watching got me chasing dreams.

I'm a educated emo with heart break on my mind,

Got my pen in my hand and a tear in my eye.

I'm a silly white kid who's left here all alone

And my friends arent there, so I can't call it home.

Death ain't nothing but a heartbeat away,

i'm living life do or die man, what can I say?

I'm wishing for her now, but will I live to see her be with me?

The way things are going I don't know.

Tell me why is she so blind to see,

That the one she hurts is always me.

Been spending most of our lives, living in the emo paradise.

Crying in the night, night into morning

Morning after morning, heartbreak after morning.

Everybody is running but half of them don't know,

What's going on in the kitchen but I don't know what's cookin?.

They say I have to learn but nobody's here to teach me.

If they don't understand it, how can they reach me?

I guess they can't, I guess they don't, I guess I'm fucked.

That's why I know my life means nothing to you.

Been spending most of our lives, living in the emo paradise.

Tell me why is she so blind to see,

That the one she hurts is always me.
