the prettiest faces belong to the biggest mouths
and the beautiful minds fail to see the light of day
all the strongest personalities formed for a reason
all the cool kids never had to stray
is a pretty face and something to say too much to ask?
do i reach too far in wanting some intellectual depth?
do i drain your youthful zest with my bitter wit and reason?
can you blindside me like everyone else?

nothing's quite like the element of surprise
down a road paved with good intentions
justify, pander, apologize all you want
i refuse to give in to obsession

my outlook has never been so clear
but my [bad word] jammed with [bad word] 
luckily i'm aware it's a double-edged sword
and you're bearing the [bad word] of it
