Less Than Zero

[Verse 1] Get out of my head or I'll fill it with lead My knuckles are red, better watch where you tread Your words are a knife, twisting into my life Like the cigarette burns that we made last night Blood on the ground makes the world spin around The emperor's clothes doesn't match his new crown And I keep on making the same mistake If I'm not dreaming than I must be awake [Chorus] I'm not like them I'll pretend for the weekend Ran out of thread Watch mе go off the deep end Less than zеro Don't be a hero Baby, it's only the weight of the world [Verse 2] I rest my head on guilt and hate And make my bed with the pain I create Grow back my soul in the shape of a hole Doesn't matter the toll, we have damage control I wish that I was just like you So unaffected, so unamused I'll shatter my skull just to have what's true Take the blue out the sky like your knees so bruised [Chorus] I'm not like them I'll pretend for the weekend Ran out of thread Watch me go off the deep end Less than zero Don't be a hero I'm not like them I'll pretend for the weekend Ran out of thread Watch me go off the deep end Less than zero Don't be a hero Took what I could even if it was broken Cry me a river I'll swim in your ocean Less than zero Don't be a hero Baby, it's only the weight of the world It's only the weight of the world
