[Intro]
Danger (x4)
You don't wanna tell it like it is boy
You don't wanna tell it like it is

Its dangerous (x4)
You don't wanna tell it like it is boy
You don't wanna tell it like it is

[Verse 1]
Sitting high, feeling low
Paper sword, cardboard throne
That's a young boy's song..
Thunderstorms, tornados
Overthrown, we carry on
Through Babylon..
(It's amazing)
Where we pledge our allegiance
When we live by the legion..
Dark was the night, cold was the ground
Out in the rain, in a cardboard crown..

[Hook]
Don't mind little old me
I just say what I see

[Verse 2]
Now, I bleed Styx into the sea
She knows this and now she's after me
(That's 'Isis' greed)..
IV drips, melodies
Clashing chords'll be the death of me
(Treble-clef casualty)..
(It's amazing)
Where we leave our minds
For these fools gold lives
When we lead our eyes
From these diamond mines
Dark was the night, cold was the ground
Out in the rain, in a cardboard crown..

[Hook]
Don't mind little old me
I just say what I see

[Verse 3]
You're sitting high and I'm feeling lost
With your shiny cars and my cardboard box..
You're skipping stones off of xylophones
And you sell it on, call it "Cardboard Rock"..
(More like tasteless slop
Like, seriously.. alright I'll stop.)

[Hook]
Dark was the night, cold was the ground
Out in the rain, in a cardboard crown
Dark was the night, cold was the ground
Out in the rain, in a cardboard crown
Dark was the night, cold was the ground
Out in the rain..
