Drag racing through the canyon
Singing "Boys Don't Cry"
Do you see us getting scraped up off the pavement?
I don't know why I am
The way I am, not strong enough to be your man
I lie, I am just lowering your expectations
Half a mind that keeps the other second guessing
Close my eyes and count
Always an angel, never a god
Always an angel, never a god
Always an angel, never a god
Always an angel, never a god
Singing "Boys Don't Cry"
Do you see us getting scraped up off the pavement?
I don't know why I am
The way I am, not strong enough to be your man
I lie, I am just lowering your expectations
Half a mind that keeps the other second guessing
Close my eyes and count
Always an angel, never a god
Always an angel, never a god
Always an angel, never a god
Always an angel, never a god
not strong enough - boy angel

been thinking about cleo with this song a lot. they lost everything they were praised for by just trying to live. they openly tell the statue that once held their praises instead of disdain, "i'm sorry for everything i could not be."
