[Verse 1] They said it like a joke Like my name was a stain Like every room I walked in Would remember the blame I kept my face blank Kept my hands in my pockets While the whole damn town Kept feeding me rockets One look, one smirk One more story to tell I learned how to nod While I slid through hell [Pre-Chorus] And it followed me home On the back of their tongue Every hallway I crossed Had my nerves on the run They wanted a bruise They wanted a scene I wanted out I wanted clean [Chorus] Fuck Tyler, that's what they always say (That's what they always say) Fuck Tyler, every damn day (Every damn day) Life keep talking like it knows my name But I don't fold, I don't play that game [Verse 2] Now I count the small things Like cracks in the glass The way a cold smile Can still hit like glass I saw my own shadow Holdin' up my spine In a cheap motel mirror At the end of the line If they want a villain I can wear that crown But I won't be the one That they drag down [Pre-Chorus] And it followed me home On the back of their tongue Every hallway I crossed Had my nerves on the run They wanted a bruise They wanted a scene I wanted out I wanted clean [Chorus] Fuck Tyler, that's what they always say (That's what they always say) Fuck Tyler, every damn day (Every damn day) Life keep talking like it knows my name But I don't fold, I don't play that game [Bridge] Let 'em point Let 'em talk I got a beat in my chest And a reason to walk If they wrote my ending They wrote it wrong I'm still here I'm still strong [Chorus] Fuck Tyler, that's what they always say (That's what they always say) Fuck Tyler, every damn day (Every damn day) Life keep talking like it knows my name But I don't fold, I don't play that game
