Paragraph Lyric
I don't mean to get into your dreams
But you seem to think it's alright to destroy
You became such an opportunist somewhat dim
It's a bad combination

You can't ever erase that you were not
Popular in school
Can't erase you were poor and a no one
You can't ever erase who you were no matter what you become
I know where you're from
And that you spoke in tongues

I know you're really just hurt and afraid
But you pretend that nothing gets to you
I'm not the kind to dance on a grave
But you're the one who bought me these dancing shoes

You can't ever erase that you were not
Popular in school
Can't erase you were poor and a no one
You can't ever erase who you were no matter what you become
I know where you're from

I can still remeber the day
When we first met and I saw myself in you
I don't mean to rain on your parade but the sky's getting dark
And there's nothing that you can do
I don't mean to get into your dreams   But you seem to think it's alright to destroy   You became such an opportunist somewhat dim   It's a bad combination      You can't ever erase that you were not   Popular in school   Can't erase you were poor and a no one   You can't ever erase who you were no matter what you become   I know where you're from   And that you spoke in tongues      I know you're really just hurt and afraid   But you pretend that nothing gets to you   I'm not the kind to dance on a grave   But you're the one who bought me these dancing shoes      You can't ever erase that you were not   Popular in school   Can't erase you were poor and a no one   You can't ever erase who you were no matter what you become   I know where you're from      I can still remeber the day   When we first met and I saw myself in you   I don't mean to rain on your parade but the sky's getting dark   And there's nothing that you can do
