[Verse 1]
Mine is a lonely one
I forgot to have fun
Standing under the street light
Ever so nervously
Are people lookin' down on me
And telling me it's alright
If it were up to me
I'd tear down this whole city
What's all this shit here for?
I give you my heart, but you just say
I make her feel like a whore

[Chorus]
All this trouble just to...
Don't say it, don't say it
All this trouble's only temporary

[Post-Chorus]
It's temporary
Temporary
It's temporary

[Verse 2]
Took away his power
But he hides a tiny flower
In the corner of his jail cell
He never been outside
He just can't hide
And he'd just as soon be in hell
Get off the fucking telephone
Why'd you hate to be alone
And paranoid of death and love?
Ever so patiently
We sit upon our sinking ship
Waiting for the black dove
[Chorus]
All this trouble just to...
No don't say it, don't say it
All this trouble's only temporary

[Post-Chorus]
It's temporary
It's temporary
It's temporary
It's temporary

[Verse 3]
Sorry that I couldn't make it
I'm glad that I could fake it
I'm sorry but I got to go
I ain't afraid of cryin'
I ain't afraid of dyin'
I ain't afraid of things I don't know
[?] Stupid pictures everywhere
Not enough you'd look me in the eye
I ain't afraid of cryin'
I ain't afraid of dyin'
I ain't afraid!

[Outro]
Temporary
Temporary
It's temporary
It's temporary
Temporary...
