Sick of all these people talking, sick of all this noise Tired of all these cameras flashing, sick of being poised Now my neck is open wide, begging for a fist around it Already choking on my pride, so there's no use crying about it
(Agnus Dei, Agnus Dei, Agnus Dei, Agnus Dei)
I'm headed straight for the castle They wanna make me their queen And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean I'm headed straight for the castle They've got the kingdom locked up And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
Straight for the castle
Oh, all of these minutes passing, sick of feeling used If you wanna break these walls down, you're gonna get bruised Now my neck is open wide, begging for a fist around it Already choking on my pride, so there's no use crying about it
(Agnus Dei, Agnus Dei, Agnus Dei, Agnus Dei)
I'm headed straight for the castle They wanna make me their queen And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean I'm headed straight for the castle They've got the kingdom locked up And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
Straight for the castle
There's no use crying about it [4x]
I'm headed straight for the castle They wanna make me their queen And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean I'm headed straight for the castle They've got the kingdom locked up And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut

"I wanna talk to you." "The last time we talked, Mr. Smith, you reduced me to tears. I promise you it won't happen again."
Do I attract you? Do I repulse you with my queasy smile? Am I too dirty? Am I too flirty? Do I like what you like?
I could be wholesome I could be loathsome I guess I'm a little bit shy Why don't you like me? Why don't you like me without making me try?
I tried to be like Grace Kelly But all her looks were too sad So I try a little Freddie I've gone identity mad!
I could be brown I could be blue I could be violet sky I could be hurtful I could be purple I could be anything you like Gotta be green Gotta be mean Gotta be everything more Why don't you like me? Why don't you like me? Why don't you walk out the door!
"Getting angry doesn't solve anything."
How can I help it How can I help it How can I help what you think? Hello my baby Hello my baby Putting my life on the brink Why don't you like me Why don't you like me Why don't you like yourself? Should I bend over? Should I look older just to be put on your shelf?
I tried to be like Grace Kelly But all her looks were too sad So I try a little Freddie I've gone identity mad!
I could be brown I could be blue I could be violet sky I could be hurtful I could be purple I could be anything you like Gotta be green Gotta be mean Gotta be everything more Why don't you like me? Why don't you like me? Why don't you walk out the door!
Say what you want to satisfy yourself But you only want what everybody else says you should want
[2x] I could be brown I could be blue I could be violet sky I could be hurtful I could be purple I could be anything you like Gotta be green Gotta be mean Gotta be everything more Why don't you like me? Why don't you like me? Walk out the door!
I grew up with a lot of green Nice things 'round me I was safe, I was fine
I grew up with a lot of dreams Plans who to be None of them none were mine
I love freaks, I don't care if you're a wild one I love freaks, I don't care if you're a wild one And me
[Chorus:] I I'm not the prettiest you've ever seen But I have my moments, I have my moments Not the flawless one, I've never been But I have my moments, I have my moments I can get a little drunk, I get into all the don'ts But on good days I am charming as ******** can get a little drunk, I get into all the don'ts But on good days I am charming as ******** can't be the perfect one But I'll make you come And I'm locked in your mind
You can say I don't belong That I'm so wrong I can tell, tell you lie
I love freaks, I don't care if you're a wild one I love freaks, I don't care if you're a wild one And
[Chorus]
[Bridge:] Rough around the edges, memories and baggage You know me Never play the safe card, when I go I go hard Now you know
We threw words like they were sharp knives Fell like we tripped over a landmine You said we lost love You made your mind up And I just got quiet, my body went numb
And I pretend that I can handle it and if I hold my head up, I won't drown Can't let go, you're like the chemical, you're racing through me My heart just pounds, pounds, pounds...
It's getting louder and louder Every time I think about you, about you I'll be better off without you, without you I wish my heart would stop, I wish my heart would stop Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa) Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa) Beating me up
You've moved on, I know I should too My cuts are all gone, my pain feels brand new Who turned the lights down? Who took my flashlight? Why does my heart sound like it might burst tonight?
It's getting louder and louder Every time I think about you, about you I'll be better off without you, without you I wish my heart would stop, wish my heart would stop Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa) Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa) Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa) I wish my heart would stop (Whoa, oh, whoa) I wish my heart would stop
I won't let you get the best of me How'd my heart become my enemy? I won't let you get the best of me How'd my heart become my enemy?
(Beating me up, beating me up) (Beating me up, beating me up)
It's getting louder (louder, louder) every time I think about you (about you, about you) I'll be better off without you (without you, without you) I wish my heart would stop I wish my heart would stop Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa) Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa) Beating me up (Whoa, oh, whoa) Whoa, whoa Wish my heart would (Whoa, oh, whoa) Wish my heart would stop Beating me up
They say we are what we are But we don't have to be. I'm bad behavior but I do it in the best way. I'll be the watcher (watcher) of the eternal flame. I'll be the guard dog of all your fever dreams.
Oooooooh I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass (glass, glass) Oooooooh, I try to picture me without you but I can't
'Cause we could be immortals, immortals Just not for long, for long. And live with me forever now, You pull the blackout curtains down Just not for long, for long.
We could be immooooooo- immortals, Immooooooo- immortals, Immooooooo- immortals, Immooooooo- immortals.
Sometimes the only pay-off for having any faith Is when it's tested again and again everyday. I'm still comparing your past to my future. It might be your wound but they're my sutures.
Oooooooh I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass (glass, glass) Oooooooh, I try to picture me without you but I can't
'Cause we could be immortals, immortals Just not for long, for long. And live with me forever now, You pull the blackout curtains down Just not for long, for long.
We could be immooooooo- immortals, Immooooooo- immortals,
Immortals, And live with me forever now, Pull the blackout curtains down,
We could be immortals, immortals Just not for long, for long. We could be immooooooo- immortals, Immooooooo- immortals, Immooooooo- immortals, Immooooooo- immortals, (Immortals)
Could dress up To get love But guess what? I'm never gonna be that girl Who's living in a Barbie world
Could wake up In make up, And play dumb Pretending that I need a boy Who's gonna treat me like a toy
I know the other girlies wanna wear expensive things Like diamond rings But I don't wanna be the puppet that you're playing on a string This queen don't need a king
Oh, I don't know what you've been told But this gal right here's gonna rule the world Yeah, that is where I'm gonna be because I wanna be No, I don't wanna sit still, look pretty You get off on your 9 to 5 Dream of picket fences and trophy wives But no, I'm never gonna be 'cause I don't wanna be No, I don't wanna sit still look pretty
Mr. Right could be nice for one night But then he wanna take control And I would rather fly solo
That Snow White She did right In her life Had 7 men to do the chores 'Cause that's not what a lady's for
The only thing a boy's gonna give a girl for free's captivity And I might love me some vanilla but I'm not that sugar sweet Call me HBIC
Oh, I don't know what you've been told But this gal right here's gonna rule the world Yeah, that is where I'm gonna be, because I wanna be No, I don't wanna sit still, look pretty You get off on your 9 to 5 Dream of picket fences and trophy wives But no, I'm never gonna be, 'cause I don't wanna be No, I don't wanna sit still look pretty
[2x] Sure, I'm a pretty girl Up in a pretty world But they say pretty hurts And I don't wanna sit still I'm a pretty girl Up in a pretty world But no, I won't sit still, look pretty
Oh, I don't know what you've been told But this gal right here's gonna rule the world Yeah, that is where I'm gonna be because I wanna be No, I don't wanna sit still, look pretty You get off on your 9 to 5 Dream of picket fences and trophy wives But no, I'm never gonna be 'cause I don't wanna be No, I don't wanna sit still look pretty
Oh, I don't know what you've been told But this gal right here's gonna rule the world Yeah, that is where I'm gonna be because I wanna be No, I don't wanna sit still, look pretty You get off on your 9 to 5 Dream of picket fences and trophy wives But no, I'm never gonna be 'cause I don't wanna be No, I don't wanna sit still, look pretty
They say that we ain't got the style We ain't got the class We ain't got the tunes that's Gonna put us on the map And I'm a phony in disguise Tryin' to make the radio I'm an anti-social anarchist I sound like so and so
They say I'm just a stupid kid Another crazy radical Rock'n'roll is dead I probably should have stayed in school Another generation X Who somehow slipped up through the cracks Oh they'd love to see me fall But I'm already on my back
[Chorus:] So it goes in one ear and right out the other People talking s**t but you know I never bother It goes in one ear and right out the other People talking s**t, they can kiss the back of my hand
Now I know I'm not a saint I've been a sinner all my life I ain't tryin' to hide my flaws I'd rather keep them in the light They want to criticize, scrutinize Cast another stone Burn me at the stake And sit and watch it from their throne
They say the devil is my pal I do a lot of drugs The crowd will only like me If they're really ********' drunk They think they know my thoughts But they don't know the least If they'd listen to the words They'd find a message tucked beneath
[Chorus:] But it goes in one ear, and right out the other, People talkin’ s**t, even though they never bother, It goes in one ear, and right out the other, People talkin’ s**t, they can kiss the back of my hand!
You hear that? You hear what's coming? Oh, you better run for the hills 'Cause we're coming to your town And we're gonna burn that ******** down
Here's the moral to the story We don't do it for the glory We don't do it for the money We don't do it for the fame So all the critics who despise us Go ahead and criticize us It's your tyranny that drives us Adds the fire to our flames
And it goes in one ear and right out the other People talking s**t so you know we never bother It goes in one ear and right out the other I'm only playing music 'cause you know I ******** love it It goes in one ear and right out the other People talking s**t but you know I never bother It goes in one ear and right out the other People talking s**t, they can kiss the back of my hand
