True Rulers

Common Rider

I see you sitting there 
Looking just a little like me 
We're both too proud 
To say anything real 
Things are bad, 
But when you ask me if it's all over, 
Don't you know how I feel? 

I remember back at BHS, 
Killing time on the courtyard steps 
Thinking we were rebels 
But the world was unimpressed 
It was just so easy to love you, 
The way you laughed at all my best defenses 
Made the world's most convincing actor 
Come back to his natural senses 

We ain't got much, 
But we got each other, 
And I can see 
That's all that I wanted all along 

We were born in a minefield 
In a world that's spinning 
Like a roulette wheel, 
Where everybody is so scared 
But they can't slow down 
You were the first good thing 
I let myself in 
And if I ever made you doubt I love you, 
Let me tell you what a fool I've been
