It Takes Blood & Guts To Be This Cool But I'm Still Just A Cliche

Save me from critical acclaim
Save my smile it's too cracked from fame
Wish me well with my fantasy
Feel my arrogance with your sanityWash me, oh, so painfully clean
Disect my words with a fist full of your dreams
Build me up and strike me down please
Sign my name, sign my nameIt takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I'm still, just a cliche
It takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I'm still, just a clicheJust a cliche, just a cliche
Just a cliche, just a clicheColour my views in red, white and blue
I'm wide awake now, wide awake now
I kiss you, I kiss you but I'm falling down
And all my friends are crowding aroundThey're crowding around looking down to see
But all they can see is me, me, me
So blow me away now with your screwed up mind
There's no charm left now for you to findIt takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I'm still, just a cliche
It takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I'm still, just a clicheJust a cliche, just a cliche
Just a cliche, just a clicheI see you, you see me
And who the hell am I supposed to be
I don't care now but I know that I should
Wasting away like you knew I wouldIt takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I'm still, still
It takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I'm still, stillIt takes blood and guts to be this cool
But I'm still, just a cliche
Just a cliche, just a cliche
Just a cliche, just a cliche
