Don’t Meet Your Heroes

歌詞

I was young and so obsessed All my friends said you're the best So I just assumed you were nice I love the way you were a star I love the way you play guitar You don't even look like you're tryin' I wish that we never met Every day, I'm still filled with regret But then again, it made me who I am There ain't a damn thing I would change except Don't meet your heroes, they're not as they seem I just should've kept you on my TV screen Oh, I learned my lesson when they put me through hell No, don't meet your heroes without knowing yourself It felt like I lived in your dream Did I hurt your self-esteem? I hope I make it in your memoir I don't mean to be a pessimist But I would never say you're heaven-sent You thought I was lightning for your jar I wish that we never met Every day, I'm still filled with regret But then again, it made me who I am There ain't a damn thing I would change except Don't meet your heroes, they're not as they seem I just should've kept you on my TV screen Oh, I learned my lesson when they put me through hell No, don't meet your heroes without knowing yourself Don't meet your heroes, they're not as they seem I just should've kept you on my TV screen Oh, I learned my lesson when they put me through hell No, don't meet your heroes without knowing yourself Oh, knowing yourself I learned my lesson when they put me through hell No, don't meet your heroes without knowing yourself Knowing yourself Yes, I've, yes, I've, yes, I've learned
