Karaoké special Shinedown

Hurry up before you go and get old

Hurry up before your blood runs cold

None of us were ever meant to stay

We're all gonna find out one day

You see life's too short to run it like a race

So it's never gonna matter if you win first place 'cos we're all the same

Stop waitin' on your fifteen minutes of fame 'cos you're not special

I'm not tryin' to rain on your parade but you're not special

I'm not tryin' to bring you down

I'm not tryin' to sound so ineffectual but you're not special

Hurry up before the bottle kicks in

Before the poison and the pain sets in

If you take it down a notch and you let me explain

That on this earth we are all the same and all I can say is

Stop waitin' on your fifteen minutes of fame 'cos you're not special

I'm not tryin' to rain on your parade but you're not special

I'm not tryin' to bring you down

I'm not tryin' to sound so ineffectual 'cos you're not special

We all live to love

We all fall apart

We'd all go to war for the faint of heart

Instead we're condescending

There are no happy endings

I won't hold my breath

I won't cast a doubt

I'd never sell you out

But I'll give you one last chance to own it 'cos you're not a God or a poet so

Stop waitin' on your fifteen minutes of fame 'cos you're not special

I'm not tryin' to rain on your parade but you're not special

I'm not tryin' to bring you down

I'm not tryin' to sound so ineffectual but you're not special

But you're not special

But you're not special

'Cos you're not special

'Cos you're not special
