Though I carried carats for everyone to see.
And I saw God cry in the reflection of my enemies
And all the lovers with no time for me
And all of the mothers raise their babies
To stay away from me.
Tongues on the sockets of electric dreams
Where the sewage of youth drowned the spark of my teens

Though I carried carats for everyone to see (everyone to see).
And pray they don't grow up to be — Fall Out Boy
