lyrics

This is where it all begins
A story where a loser finally wins
Yeah, are you for real?
C’mon it’s time to give the kid his fix
Let me look inside my bag of tricks
Let’s see what’s the deal

Even tho the night is over
I gotta rock
I keep on knockin’ on your front door
Still, I gotta rock
You keep on pokin’ holes in my story
That only makes me want you more
Don’t even think you can try to ignore me
I gotta rock

Should I become a ghost when I get hurt?
I’d rather find your treasure in the dirt
Yeah, I’m the real deal
When I put my lips against your lips
When I press the flesh above your hips
Don’t you feel what I feel?

Even tho the night is over
I gotta rock
I keep on knockin’ on your front door
Still, I gotta rock
You keep on pokin’ holes in my story
That only makes me want you more
Don’t even think you can try to ignore me
I gotta rock

The paper heart blew up to me in the park
The paper heart flew up to me in the park
I was walkin’ my dog, it was just before dark
When a piece of paper with a heart cut open the scar

The paper heart blew up to me in the park
The paper heart flew up to me in the park
I was walkin’ my dog, it was just before dark
When a piece of paper with a heart ignited a spark in you
Reignited a spark in you
There’s a light deep inside of you
I’ll keep on trying til I turn blue
Keep on burning til I break through
Yeah this is what I’m supposed to do

Even tho the night is over
I gotta rock
I keep on knockin’ on your front door
Still, I gotta rock
You keep on pokin’ holes in my story
That only makes me want you more
Don’t even think you can try to ignore me
I gotta rock

Will you put some candy in my bag?
Or is this another trick?
Yeah, are you for real?
