Say Anything - People Like You Are Why People Like Me Exist Lyrics

You never wanted this, so now I'm taking it from you
Back in the hands of the natives of this land
You're a fallen star, you know not what you are
We're escaping through the tunnels deep beneath you

People like you are why people like me exist
Persist to spit upon your writ
People like you are why people like me defy your lies
So here's your kiss goodbye

Don't you look at her, don't you even say a word
You had your chance and you sold it secondhand
Repressed and overdressed, brand a scarlet letter on your chest
Here's where second best overtakes the rest and

People like you are why people like me exist
Persist to spit upon your writ
People like you are why people like me defy your lies
So here's your kiss goodbye

We see, we see right through
We see, we see right through you
We see, we see right through
We see right through you

A person's not more than a thing
The day his insides cease to sting, yeah
Get on your gloves and take the ring
Vacate your throne, unholy king of kings, whoa, yeah

People like you are why people like me exist
Persist to spit upon your writ
People like you are why people like me defy your lies
So here's your kiss goodbye

People like you, people like you
People like you are why people like me defy your lies
So here's a kiss goodbye
