[Verse 1]
We all can dream of blazing glories
But all I dream of now is you and your blue eyes
It’s strange how we can feel like we don’t live our own lives
And I wasn’t sure about my own but
Now i’m feelin’ fine

[Chorus]
Your video game books
They might get me funny looks
But staff sergeant max mayhem gets me hot
And i’m starting to see
Not just what you want from me
But what you wanna get from what you got

[Verse 2]
Now what do you think you’re gonna be
You think you’ll leave some kind of lasting mark
But with infinite tomorrows
I know this isn’t fair
No one gets remembered but now I just don’t care

[Chorus]
Your video game books
They might get me funny looks
But staff sergeant max mayhem gets me hot
And i’m starting to see
Not just what you want from me
But what you wanna get from what you got
[Bridge]
There’s not a lot
Of amputee heroes in history

[Verse 3]
I wish our lives were so much simpler
And I hope you get to have your moment in the fight
But no one gets to be quite who they want to be
And you wanted to matter
Boy, well, you matter to me

[Chorus]
Your video game books
Might get me funny looks
But staff sergeant max mayhem gets me hot
And i’m starting to see
Not just what you want from me
But what you wanna get from what you got

[Outro]
There’s not a lot
Of amputee heroes in history
But I’ve got one sitting right in front of me
