Michael Braun - Time Was Lyrics

Sometimes ideas make you drunk
And you get too fired up
Take a little too much confidence
It's hard to tell yourself no

Sometimes things change
Before you move your feet
Sometimes you look back
And realize you got beat

Time was
They thought you fit to be crowned
Time was
You were the hot name it town
So why
The desperation
Lashing out
When you're feeling down

A compliment's a weapon
Don't let adoration trip you up
A smile is always free
They use it 'cause you can't get enough

The show won't end
You won't turn off the lights
Just because you're winning
Doesn't make you right

Time was
They thought you fit to be crowned
Time was
You were the hot name it town
So why
The desperation
Lashing out
When you're feeling down

You're already on the outs
Bluster buried you at last
But with confidence intact
You've left that failure in the past

Sometimes things change
Before you change your glare
Sometimes you look back
And realize you don't care

Time was
They thought you fit to be crowned
Time was
You were the hot name it town
So why
The desperation
Lashing out
When you're feeling down
