Lyrics From Vinyl

[Verse 1]
We're all bored
We're all so tired of everything
We wait for trains that just aren't coming
We show off our different scarlet letters
Trust me, mine is better
We're so young, and on the road to ruin
We play dumb, but we know exactly what we're doing
We cry tears of mascara in the bathroom
Life's just a classroom

[Chorus]
Baby, I could build a castle
Out of all the bricks they threw at me
Every day is like a battle
But every night is like a dream
Baby, we're the new romantics
Come on, come along with me
Heartbreak is the national anthem
We sing it proudly
We are too busy dancing
To get swept off our feet
Baby, we're the new romantics
The best people in life are free
[Verse 2]
We need love
What we really want is danger
We team up, then break up like a record changer
And the rumors, are terrible and cruel
But most of them are true

[Chorus]
Baby, I could build a castle
Out of all the bricks they threw at me
Every day is like a battle
But every night is like a dream
Baby, we're the new romantics
Come on, come along with me
Heartbreak is the national anthem
We sing it proudly
We are too busy dancing
To get swept off our feet
Baby, we're the new romantics
The best people in life are free

[Bridge]
So take my hand and we'll both stand inside a burning building
Maybe I'm a shit show, but I'm fun
And kinda cute and willing
And if I could be the anti-hero
You could be my perfect villain
We'll be the perfect storm
Leave me cold and keep me warm
Fall in love, then go to war
That's what new romance is for
[Chorus]
Baby, I could build a castle
Out of all the bricks they threw at me
Every day is like a battle
But every night is like a dream
Baby, we're the new romantics
Come on, come along with me
Heartbreak is the national anthem
We sing it proudly
We are too busy dancing
To get swept off our feet
Baby, we're the new romantics
The best people in life are free
