[Verse 1]
Some folks too scared to die, but I'm too scared to live
Just one minute, I'm not ready, I'm still practicing
You can blame it on me, or blame it on society
I'm living where the drinks are, hidden from sobriety
But I might take a step or maybe two and go back that night
Always falling for the same ruse, thinking I've got time
Always staring back at the moon, wishing I could be that high
Wishing I could be that guy, who lives in bliss

[Chorus]
But I'm so focused on exterior
Perpetually inferior
And always got something to prove
In your eyes, I'm just a character
Trapped bеhind a barrier
An Idea, a fucking cartoon
Girl, don't say that you're sorry for mе
When I'm sorry for you

[Verse 2]
Bae, we can run away, maybe take a train, like the one on my mind
Date, we can hit the bay, catch a few rays, and a couple fireflies
You remember what I said that night, hope it's still in your head
Hey, it's okay, wrote it on the nightstand by your bed
Hey, I know, things don't always match right
But I'd be a fool, if I don't see the way you fly
If a grounded guy like me, could learn to fly as highly
That'd be alright with me
It may not be likely
When I think of you so highly
[Chorus]
But I'm so focused on exterior
Perpetually inferior
And always got something to prove
In your eyes, I'm just a character
Trapped behind a barrier
An Idea, a fucking cartoon
Girl, don't say that you're sorry for me
When I'm sorry for you

[Verse 3]
Girl, I wonder when we're on our own, do we see the same goal
Can you spot me from so high above, from that altitude?
Please don't say that you're sorry, don't say that you're sorry
Don't say you're, I'm so sorry too
Girl, don't say that you're sorry for me
When I'm sorry for you
