Hiding in the basement, Try to block my mind.

Some say that I'm swell at first, Then one day they turn around & curse

And they treat me like I don't belong, But somehow, that just made me strong.
C E Am C
And I push too hard, I push too soon, And I live it out on a paper moon.

Then you take me in, when I've had enough.

Is that what they call love? Is that what they call love?

Watch me going down in style.

That's why it's hard for me to understand, Why you can take me the way I am

And not even try to change my attitude, But I'll try to change, if you want me to.
C E Am C
And I push too hard, I push too soon, And I live it out on a paper moon.
