Poster Child

Go and be something, you've got it in you

They told you you were special, but you fit in like any old shoe

Life was simple (life was simple), and so easy (and so easy)

The colors were bright and vibrant, being yourself was such a breeze

How often do the echos resound?

You're covering your ears, still, it's too loud

You're running out of chances to be wild

You burnt out ex-poster child

I'll lay with you, with open eardrums

We'll laugh at the ceiling, conjure the feeling 'til the morning comes

The judge and jury, at your own trial

Why are you hiding? Open your eyes and we'll be still for a while

Beware of the wolves in your mind

Howling at the moon you've left behind

You're running out of chances to be wild

You burnt out ex-poster child

Jump in your car, oh

Go somewhere far away

Turn the radio off, be alone in your thoughts

Hit the gas, pray to God you'll never turn it around
