[Verse 1]
Rush of the past
I quietly crash and the tables turn
You're beautiful, strange, defiantly brash
Be careful now
Kid you're a cut above
Always just a cut above the rest

[Chorus]
If there's something left to be learned
Then my time is running
Why should I waste it all, waste it on you?
I shouldn't be trusted to live and let go
When the last of my cities have burned
Then what's left in nothing?
Why did I waste it all, waste it on you?
I couldn't be trusted to live and let go

[Verse 2]
Fill in the blanks, pencil on paper
Disposable
Throw away lines
Intentional but unbelievable
Kid you're a cut above
Always just a cut above the rest
[Chorus]
If there's something left to be learned
Then my time is running
Why should I waste it all, waste it on you?
I shouldn't be trusted to live and let go
When the last of my cities have burned
Then what's left in nothing?
Why did I waste it all, waste it on you?
I couldn't be trusted to live and let go

[Bridge]
Shaken and tried
Fade and resign as the tables turn
Let's slip away, the renegade life you've been dreaming of
Kid you're a cut above
Always just a cut above the rest

[Chorus]
If there's something left to be learned
Then my time is running
Why should I waste it all, waste it on you?
I shouldn't be trusted to live and let go
When the last of my cities have burned
Then what's left in nothing?
Why did I waste it all, waste it on you?
I couldn't be trusted to live and let go
