I'm no saint, but I know a thing or two

About the things we shouldn't do

Too bad, your drugs don't make you cute

'Cause you're losing touch with things that matter dearly

Like dreams of the big city and flashing lights

Too bad you'll never see them through

'Cause one day you're here, the next you're gone

You used to dream big, now you don't dream at all

'Cause you stay up all night wondering what went wrong?

Are you justified, if you stay stoned

Your satisfaction lives in the undertone right now

I don't know who you've become

It's a shame you're always gone

Where'd you learn these things, you never knew

Were you too afraid that people wouldn't like you for being you?

'Cause I know your crowds, they're always problematic

Their pressure don't make diamonds, they make you fools

And I guess the pressure got me too

One day you're here, the next you're gone

You used to dream big, now you don't dream at all

'Cause you stay up all night, wondering what went wrong

Are you justified, if you stay stoned

Your satisfaction lives in the undertone right now

I don't know who you've become

It's a shame you're always gone, yeah

Oh, it's a shame you're always gone

I'm no saint, but I know a thing or two
