Lyrics
0:29Businessmen drink my blood
0:34Like the kids in art school said they would
0:39And I guess I'll just begin again
0:44You say can we still be friends
0:51If I was scared I would
0:56And if I was bored you know I would
1:01And if I was yours but I'm not
1:10All the kids have always known
1:14That the emperor wears no clothes
1:19But to bow to down to them anyway
1:24Is better than to be alone
1:32If I was scared I would
1:36And if I was bored you know I would
1:42And if I was yours but I'm not
1:50Now you're knocking at my door
1:54Saying please come out with us tonight
2:00But I would rather be alone
2:05Than pretend I feel alright
2:10If the businessmen drink my blood
2:15Like the kids in art school said they would
2:20Then I guess I'll just begin again
2:25You say can we still be friends
2:32If I was scared I would
2:37And if I was pure you know I would
2:42And if I was yours but I'm not
2:48Now I'm Ready to Start
2:52If I was scared I would
2:57And if I was pure you know I would
3:02And if I was yours but I'm not
3:08Now I'm Ready to Start
3:16Now I'm Ready to Start
3:23I would rather be wrong
3:31Than live in the shadows of your song
3:35My mind is open wide
3:39And now I'm ready to start
3:47Now I'm Ready to Start
3:50My mind is open wide
3:54Now I'm Ready to Start
3:57Not sure you'll open the door
4:02To step out into the dark
4:10Now I'm ready
Businessmen drink my blood Like the kids in art school said they would And I guess I'll just begin again You say can we still be friends If I was scared I would And if I was bored you know I would And if I was yours but I'm not All the kids have always known That the emperor wears no clothes But to bow to down to them anyway Is better than to be alone If I was scared I would And if I was bored you know I would And if I was yours but I'm not Now you're knocking at my door Saying please come out with us tonight But I would rather be alone Than pretend I feel alright If the businessmen drink my blood Like the kids in art school said they would Then I guess I'll just begin again You say can we still be friends If I was scared I would And if I was pure you know I would And if I was yours but I'm not Now I'm Ready to Start If I was scared I would And if I was pure you know I would And if I was yours but I'm not Now I'm Ready to Start Now I'm Ready to Start I would rather be wrong Than live in the shadows of your song My mind is open wide And now I'm ready to start Now I'm Ready to Start My mind is open wide Now I'm Ready to Start Not sure you'll open the door To step out into the dark Now I'm ready
