Got a tattooed heart   Dedication is critical man   Got a lot to learn   On the inside      Don’t believe their lies   If you believe that anything’s more than   The sum of its parts   And you can do what you want to      Sacrifice your art   For the sake of getting it done   The immortal words   Of the in-crowd      Gonna make them cry   Gonna make them reach in and   Fill that big black void that   Masquerades as an emotion      And in the morning when I step outside   I find a jukebox playing songs about life   A little story about the things we love      Maybe get a job   Go to California   Get yourself all tanned   On the outside      Got a tattooed heart   Escape is not an option   Turn the television off   And take care of the paint job      And in the morning when I step outside   I find a jukebox playing songs about life   A little story about the things we love
