If the businessmen drink my blood
Like the kids at art school said they would
The I guess I'll just begin again.
You say, can we still be friends?
If I was scared, I would,
And if I was bored, you know I would,
And if I was yours, but I'm not.
All the kids have always known
That the emperor wears no clothes
But they bow down to him anyway
'cause it's better then being alone.
If I was scared, I would,
and if I was bored, you know I would,
And if I was yours, but I'm not.
Now you're knocking at my door
Saying: "Please come out with us tonight"
But I would rather be alone,
then pretend I feel alright.
If the businessmen drink my blood
Like the kids at art school said they would
The I guess I'll just begin again.
You say, can we still be friends?
If I was scared, I would,
And if I was pure, you know I would,
And if I was yours, but I'm not.
Now I'm ready to start.
If I was scared, I would,
And if I was pure, you know I would,
And if I was yours, but I'm not.
Now I'm ready to start.
Now I'm ready to start,
I would rather be wrong than
Live in the shadows of your song.
My mind is open wide and
Now I'm ready to start.
My mind is open wide
And now I'm ready to start.
You're not sure
You opened the door
and step out into the dark.
Now I'm ready.

If the businessmen drink my blood Like the kids at art school said they would The I guess I'll just begin again. You say, can we still be friends?
If I was scared, I would, And if I was bored, you know I would, And if I was yours, but I'm not.
All the kids have always known That the emperor wears no clothes But they bow down to him anyway 'cause it's better then being alone.
If I was scared, I would, and if I was bored, you know I would, And if I was yours, but I'm not.
Now you're knocking at my door Saying: "Please come out with us tonight" But I would rather be alone, then pretend I feel alright.
If the businessmen drink my blood Like the kids at art school said they would The I guess I'll just begin again. You say, can we still be friends?
If I was scared, I would, And if I was pure, you know I would, And if I was yours, but I'm not. Now I'm ready to start.
If I was scared, I would, And if I was pure, you know I would, And if I was yours, but I'm not. Now I'm ready to start.
Now I'm ready to start, I would rather be wrong than Live in the shadows of your song. My mind is open wide and Now I'm ready to start. My mind is open wide And now I'm ready to start.
You're not sure You opened the door and step out into the dark. Now I'm ready.
