Growing up to people with long neckties
paying a tenth of a tenth of their tithes
Hoping to buy time; selling their schemes
though it's not as easy as it seems

But please excuse excuses
in an unheard inclusion, judged by all
By a constant generic conclusion
constantly saying you are clueless,
And sort of useless; but never using you less
because there's something that you're never doing

I'd like to set the stage off for us losers

Growing up in the shadow of a shadow
as life is darker when you convince yourself
that you don't matter
Only feeling like dark matter;
85% of someone else's centre of a universe,
And even as stars, we'll always scatter

But please understand understanding
when people have walked all over you
and are always so demanding
Maddening, how we could sing the same
song, but it feels like we're constantly disbanding

I'd like to set the stage off for us losers

Growing up loose for words
losing our words to speak to girls
Speaking about ourselves in loosely terms
and leaking out our heart loosened
by what everyone else yearns

But please lose losers
in a thought, of thinking I'm just
with the polluters
Wasting time and talent,
so ******* of you to say,
When you're the main consumers

But who am I to say anything,
I'm just a loser like you

Welcome, welcome all you losers
