Pile Up The Bodies

Location

You can say that you're my friend.

But i know in my head, that you're not.

You can say that you're here, 

But you'll just ditch me for beer

The next Saturday we have off.

You can say that you wont'. 

But I know that you don't

Give a damn about anything

Except your own popularity

So must that you'll step

Right over me. 

But I'm starting to see clearly.

 

That you just pile up the bodies of the people you've been mean to.

Because they will never be like you.

You just pile up the bodies of the people you left crying.

Because they couldn't help you look cool.

But I'd rather be a nerd.

I'd rather be a freak.

I'd rather be a geek

Than be anything like you. 

 

You can say that you're sorry.

But I know in my heart

That you're not. 

You can say that you care,

But I know you won't be there

If I need a shoulder to cry on.

You can say that you will

But your looks really kill when

You glare at me from across the room.

Staring daggers in my back so deep that I

I bleed black

 

As I watch you pile up the bodies of the people you've been mean to.

Because they will never be like you.

You just pile up the bodies of the people you left crying.

Because they couldn't help you look cool.

But I'd rather be a nerd.

I'd rather be a freak.

I'd rather be a geek 

Than be anything like you.

 

And sometimes it takes more than one thing to make the perfect poison.

And sometimes it takes more than one cut to let it all in.

But you found a way and now there's chemicals running through my bloodstream.

Making me lose every part of me.

And I don't know if there's a way out.

But I'm going to try because I refuse to lay down and watch you.

 

Pile up the bodies of the people you've been mean to.

Because they will never be like you.

You just pile up the bodies of the people you left crying.

Because they couldn't help you look cool.

But I'd rather be a nerd.

I'd rather be a freak.

I'd rather be a geek.

Than be anything like you.
