Hey kids! Gather around, I want to tell you something Come on, clap your hands, here we go Clap, clap, 1, 2, 3, 4 Stop being the print and start being the painting I'll never look at this as if it's a game again Copies of copies, when did distinction become a sin? With conformity let's see how far we can walk in someone else's shoes Because their success is our success To what, to what ending? With them you rise, and with them you fall Without them you are lost How does it feel to be responsible for being pollution? (What's that?) How does it feel to be responsible for being pollution? Let's make noise pollution But you still claim to be original I've seen your kind before You justify your fakeness by making false claims about your sound and Who you are Who you are To what, to what ending? I've seen so many like you before That's all you'll be unless you... Stop being the print of someone else's painting Stop being the print, stop being the print, stop being the print Stop being the print of someone else's painting It's time that you forgot about copycats and chasing tails Stop being the print of someone else's painting Because in the end you'll amount to be a, a kid without a brush No one in this generation has any originality No one is trying and we're all becoming (with conformity all you will Amount to be is) Lazy! We're all lazy! Don't copy instead of create To what ending, to what ending now? You've abused the system and made this a mess And I can't help but be bitter Stop being the print of someone else's painting It's time that you forgot about copycats and chasing tails Stop being the print of someone else's painting Because in the end you'll amount to be a, a kid without a brush Stop being the print of someone else's painting There's no room for copycats and chasing tails Oh, no one is being anything in this generation Don't be that kid Don't be that kid without the brush When I was a young boy, my mamma said to me "Son, don't be like the other boys. Just follow your own feet" I said, "Mamma, don't you be afraid. Don't worry about a thing Because when I grow up I'm gonna be an artist and not a cover girl" I said, don't be the print of someone else's painting Don't be the print of someone else's painting Don't be the print of someone else's painting Stop being the print, stop being the print, start being the painting

She walks with a sway I hope I never replicate She thinks she's on top of the world Living two lives at the same time Sunday's revival brought you to your senses Repent, repent for all your sins But the second you walked out those double doors You became the same that you were when you walked in She hits the ground so hard she can't get back up But how would I know? I wasn't even there I'm hearing it from somebody else Living in a world of lies Won't get you anywhere in this life Even though I'll always love you I'm still stuck with a liar for a friend His father was a preacher And he knew that book like the back of his hand To him it's just a novel, oh just a novel Raise those hands, make them think that you're in the congregation Fake it, fake it But when you walk back through those double doors The mask comes off and you keep on living for yourself You make it out to be a game You make it out to be a game You make it out to be a game Pretending to be something you are not Nobody knows, nobody knows that your actions speak differently when You're not alone The public eye has no idea what you're like in the middle of the night But the public eye is not the only eye that's watching you Living in a world of lies Won't get you anywhere in this life Even though I'll always love you I'm still stuck with a liar for a friend A liar, a liar, a liar for a friend A friend, a friend, a liar for a friend Sunday's revival Let's see how much you've changed You made it out to be a game Sunday's revival Let's see how much you've changed Let's see how much you've changed

Sidelines, you are the worst I've hated you all of these years I never got a chance to be on your team Day after day, year after year I saw them come, I saw them go Through it all we stayed the same Through it all we stayed the same You say, "We're too close to be anything more" And I say, "How would you know?" You think you know me, you think you know me You think you know me way too well You think you know me, you think you know me You think you know me way too well for love Dreams, you are the worst I've hated you all of these nights I tell everyone that I know "I don't remember a single one" But the truth is, I've had the same dream all of these nights And it won't ever go away, it won't ever go away Please, go away You think you know me, you think you know me You think you know me way too well You think you know me, you think you know me You think you know me way too well for love You think you know me when you know my favorite bands, and who my favorite singer is You think you know me when you know what time I go to bed, because work starts early You think you know me when you call me in the middle of the night And know I'll answer because I always do You think you know me, but you don't 'Cause if you did then you'd know You haven't seen nothin' yet You haven't seen nothin' yet You haven't seen nothin' yet I don't wanna, I don't wanna be left on the sidelines I don't wanna, I don't wanna be left on the sidelines You say, "We're too close to be anything more" But how would you know, how would you know When you've only seen me on the sidelines?

Failures and fakes and those who don't get their way All seem to have excuses for how they think Justified, dignified, they all pledge their innocence And I would know because, because I'm one of them It's through expression that we make our understanding Are we who we are if it's who we appear to be? Let me tell you friends, I've found out the hard way Imitations don't produce originality Don't, don't, don't, don't think I've escaped I'm just as guilty Because we're all failures and fakes And if you won't believe it Well then I've seen your future It's not that impressive Excuses, excuses we got 'em all, they're weighing us down We all got faults, we all got faults But no one seems to be blaming themselves Friends, I've found out the hard way Hypocrisy runs free when you talk as if you're blameless Don't, don't, don't, don't think I've escaped I'm just as guilty We're all failures and fakes And if you won't believe it Well then I've seen your future It's not that impressive But if you're not willing to be reasonable then I'll be leaving Because there's no use in trying to change the proud or heal the ungrateful Heal, heal the ungrateful But you know better than I do That your walls are falling down, and there's no way for you to stop it This is no one's fault but your own (hey, hey, hey, hey) So stop running (hey, hey, hey, hey) from your problems Because they won't fix themselves We're all broken We're all so broken It takes a man to acknowledge his weakness We're broken We're all so broken It takes a man to acknowledge his weakness There may only be a speck in your eye But denial's gonna keep it there, keep it there Yes I know there's a plank in my eye, but I'm willing Willing to admit it You got no trouble finding sin in my eyes But all that changes when it seems like it's your neck on the line

Where is your foundation?

"Get away from me," I wanted to say I've held myself back so many times from saying this to you I'll take the picture, and I'll fake the smile It's funny you showed up, where've you been the past four years? But now that I've got your attention, let me tell you what's been on my mind You forgot about the ones you grew up with And continue living as if I don't exist Those full-time jobs, they never paid enough To make it out to a single show Those full-time jobs, they never paid enough To make it out to a single show But these words fall on deaf ears Because most of my friends will never hear these words So I'll speak freely To those of you I knew the most yet cared the least about me You're the reason that I'll speak freely But I do know if you do hear this song you're going to call me up and say "Michael, what's wrong? Is everything ok?" And I'm gonna tell you this: "No! It's not ok! 'Cause for the past four years you haven't said a single thing Yes, something's wrong One-sided frienships only last for so long" No one is communicating What's keeping things from fading away? Oh yeah, don't forget the ones you grew up with Because when your four years are up, my dear I can guarantee that you'll end up back here When those crazy years come to an end I can assure you that you'll be the one without any friends Hold it, hold it! Hold that thought Wake up Class of Twenty-Ten I've got something to say, I've got something to say When we're all done growing up You're gonna wish we would have stayed in touch Wake up Class of Twenty-Ten I've got something to say, something to say Four years now I haven't seen your face I warned you two years ago, wake up
