Mnemonic Advice - The Winner

I heard your sad songs
Clamoring for emotion
And empathy
You looked into the mirror
And said nobody's fit to tell this story but me
So you stick out throughout the crowd
And think what the hell is anyone even talking about
You conjure all your self-pity
As if the loser in you is the same as the loser in me

Well you can sing words that will only break us down
You can stir the pot
As my body boils in it from the mind on down
But there's a winner in you
And I wanna hear how it sounds

Honestly I don't care
About anyone making out
We all long for lust
But you can trust
We'll all figure it out
So the prom king didn't want you
But I want you and baby I wanna figure you out
Apathy is in the sea
As your sail blows you back to your hometown

Well you can sing words that will only break us down
You can stir the pot
As my body boils in it from the mind on down
But there's a winner in you
And I wanna hear how it sounds

Tell me why you hurt
Tell me why you long
Tell me with more words
Deeper lyrics in your songs
I just wanna see you happy
I'll be happy if you do too
Because life's always a mystery
It doesn't happen just to you
We've all felt like a loser
Parties where you don't wanna stay
But you've built yourself a living
Off of everyone feeling that way
Empty stories are best not told
Every single day
Baby it just gets old
What more can you say
Before you take out your best dress
Because it's all just woe is me
And you put on the dress
And let everybody see
You are looking so good baby
You are looking oh so fine
Counteract the sadness
Let everybody see you shine
Let everybody see you shine

Well you can sing words that will only break us down
You can stir the pot
As my body boils in it from the mind on down
Oh but there's a winner in you
And I wanna hear how it sounds
