"The First Punch"

(Where you from, fool?!)

This world is about to change

1, 2 ...

1, 2, 3, 4

Look into my eyes

And look at the words you say

Blood on your tongue with a crass embrace.

A photo kiss on the day that we met said

"This will be a night we won't forget"

Speak slow now, I don't wanna miss when you cry

Glass over diamond blue eyes

And it's good enough to make me wanna fall in love

So move a little bit closer

Hear the sound of your voice

We're screaming, "Why can't we just be friends?"

It's not that easy, but it's half of the fun

To see you throw the first punch now

Such a shame you had to go and run your mouth

...is what you make it, but at least I've got real friends

Can you hear me now?

Now that I'm a big star

Fuck you and your new love for yourself

It don't mean shit.

And it's good enough to make me wanna fall in love

So move a little bit closer

Hear the sound of your voice

We're screaming, "Why can't we just be friends?"

It's not that easy, but it's half of the fun

To see you throw the first punch now

I've got so much to give, but

I would kill just to feel less invisible

And you've got so much to learn about gravity

So live it up baby, don't look down

Live it up baby, don't look down

And it's good enough to make me wanna fall in love

So move a little bit closer

Hear the sound of your voice

We're screaming, "Why can't we just be friends?"

It's not that easy, but it's half of the fun

I saw it coming when you threw the first punch

You threw the first punch

Now it's your turn to run

This is the breath that will take my life

There's no future but matches and propane.

And through the mutated words I write.

Kill it fast and never watch it die.
