We were good kids, and now we’re shitty adults
We never got in any trouble so we never learned what trouble was
And when it came to call we let it right in
We were generous hosts

Oh what a good fit: Kind intent, ill result
When they sifted through the rubble our blood was underneath its claws
Yeah it tore us apart but we survived it
Now we’re turnpike ghosts

And it all makes sense
When you play it back from where it ends
We were always meant to be here

Great shot, kid!
You blew it again
Prove your rivals right, disappoint your friends
Cuz you never want it badly enough
(Never want it badly enough)
No you never want it badly enough
Great shot, kid!
A swing and a miss
Travel back in time, meet your own damn fist
Cuz you never want it badly enough
(Never want it badly enough)
Started out with too much, you were never gonna give it up

We were rich kids
And we were stupid as hell
We were willfully indifferent, blind to the sins of wealth
Yeah we were cozy and numb and we fit right in
Until we left home

I can’t escape it
No I know it too well
That dull suburban sickness, the craving for a comfortable couch
Oh snap me out of the spell
Let me out! Let me out! Let me out!

One day they’re gonna ask us where it went
Why are we still here when our time’s been spent?
We were always slaves to our fear

Great shot, kid!
You blew it again
Prove your rivals right, disappoint your friends
Cuz you never want it badly enough
(Never want it badly enough)
No you never want it badly enough
Great shot, kid!
A swing and a miss
Travel back in time, meet your own damn fist
Cuz you never want it badly enough
(Never want it badly enough)
Started out with too much, you were never gonna give it up

(Lucky thing nobody ever gets what they deserve)
(Lucky thing nobody ever gets what they deserve)
(Lucky thing nobody ever gets what they deserve)
(Lucky thing nobody ever gets what they deserve)

Well I can’t unlearn the things I’ve learned
But now I know it’s a lucky thing
Nobody gets what they deserve

You never want it badly enough
(You never want it badly enough)
No you never want it badly enough
Great shot, kid!
You know what you did?
Took a fighting chance for your soul to live
Cuz you never want it badly enough
(You never want it badly enough)
Started out with too much, you were never gonna give it up
