lyrics

Where do you get off?
Saying one is wrong, and one is right
Like there's a big black line between that only you can see
You see both sides
Like it's a big red neon sign
And only you can pull the wool off of our eyes

This must be your stop
I know it's someone else's job
To fix the pieces when you're gone

Oh no,
It's not so easy
(It's not so hard)
It's not so easy
(It's not so hard)
If it was easy, they would've sent somebody else

You're tired of waiting
Almost perfect; just impatient
Wasn't someone supposed to call and make you famous?
Isn't that what fame is?
Who you put yourself beside
In the right place at the right time

Oh no,
It's not so easy
(It's not so hard)
It's not so easy
(It's not so hard)
If it was easy, they would've sent somebody else

They would've sent somebody young
Someone scared
Someone green, under-prepared
Not your highness
High above them
Reigning kind of mass-reduction

It's not so easy
It's not so easy
If it was
If it was
If it was
They would've sent somebody else
