“Sophomore Slump or Comeback of the Year” is a self-referential title that alludes to the general expectation that an artist’s second album is usually among the worst (especially after a successful debut). The song is also an anthem to a generation that is often told that we’ll amount to nothing, t...
[Chorus: Patrick Stump]
Are we growing up or just going down?
It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
Take our tears, put 'em on ice
'Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light
[Verse 1: Patrick Stump]
We're the therapists pumping through your speakers
Delivering just what you need
We're well-read and poised
We're the best boys
We're the chemists who've found the formula
To make your heart swell and burst
No matter what they say
Don't believe a word
[Pre-Chorus: Patrick Stump]
'Cause I'll keep singing this lie if you'll keep believing it
And I'll keep singing this lie, I'll keep singing this lie
[Chorus: Patrick Stump]
Are we growing up or just going down?
It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
Take our tears, put 'em on ice
'Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light
[Verse 2: Patrick Stump]
We're traveled like gypsies, only
With worse luck and far less gold
We're the kids you used to love
But then we grew old
We're the lifers, here 'til the bitter end
Condemned from the start
Ashamed of the way the songs and the
Words own (the words own) the beating of our hearts
[Pre-Chorus: Patrick Stump]
'Cause I'll keep singing this lie, I'll keep singing this lie
[Chorus: Patrick Stump]
Are we growing up or just going down?
It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
Take our tears, put 'em on ice
'Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light
[Post-Chorus: Patrick Stump]
And there's a drug in the thermostat to warm the room up
And there's another around to help us bend your trust
Got a sunset in my veins
And I need to take a pill to make this town feel okay
[Bridge: William Beckett, Patrick Stump]
The best part of "believe" is the "lie"
I hope you sing along and you steal a line
I need to keep you like this in my mind
So give in or just give up
The best part of "believe" is the "lie"
I hope you sing along and you steal a line
I need to keep you like this in my mind
So give in or just give up
Are we growing up, or just going down?
[Chorus: Patrick Stump]
Are we growing up or just going down?
It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
Take our tears, put 'em on ice
'Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light
