Act one: truth or dare I’m dismissed as a child by middle school whores while pretending to sleep Act three: I’m accused of abandoning something That kicked my head in and gave up on me Oh, the twos are on the dance floor And the ones are on stage I know, it doesn't make a difference I’m up here but I’m a two anyway Behold the impressive array of small traumas You’ve stashed at the back of a memory shelf The years will go by and this thing that they’ve made you Will become something you claim for yourself Oh, the twos are on the dance floor And the ones are on stage I know, it doesn’t make a difference I’m up here but I’m a two anyway Each whisper carries on its wings A strength they’ll never know You can do anything Once you’ve walked into a party alone Oh, the twos are on the dance floor And the ones are on stage I know, it doesn’t make a difference I’m up here but I’m a two anyway The twos are on the dance floor Anyway It doesn’t make a difference It doesn’t make a difference.

We’ve all got so much in common, We should have something to say When we walk out in the morning, But it just doesn’t work out that way They can’t deny they’re curious They’ve at least got to give me that ‘Cause they bow their heads and walk by But they always look back Yeah, they always look back Yeah, they always look What if they’re just like us? They could be our best friends And what if she’s a drummer? She could play in your band Maybe someday I will say hello It’ll be like a sneak attack But for now, I walk on And I always look back Yeah, I always look back Yeah, I always look

You know about the spell they’ve got you under The pain you get from different kinds of hunger You’ve felt the sting of bumblebees and splinters, But have you ever known a jet-black winter? You failed to ask the question that could fix her It started and was over with a picture You’ve felt the shame of absolute beginners But have you ever known a jet-black winter? The verdict’s out, the jury is united Some things will only ever be one-sided You’re branded with the alphabet of sinners But have you ever known a jet-black winter?

If beauty’s in the eye of the beholder, Then ugliness is in her jealous mind Why do I look good in mirrors but not in photographs? Because only the first opinion is all mine What you see makes me look away Why do I feel like I’ve told you this same story once before? I never wanted that to be me Next time I see you, I’ll be sure to keep my mouth shut That way I’ll spare you from repeats And for once, I’ll have nothing to say This is my argument for a solitary life.
