Up and Comer

I wear your name like it's a noose around my neck
I slipped a rope just to fall right into a net

I wear a smile like it's a runner
Your despise is like a badge of honour
They say she's good for an up and comer
They say she's good for an up and comer
I wear a smile like it's a runner
Your despise is like a badge of honour
They say she's good for an up and comer
They say she's good for an up and comer

I swim the seas between paranoia and disbelief
I reach the surface but the air is hard to breathe

I wear a smile like it's a runner
Your despise is like a badge of honour
They say she's good for an up and comer
They say she's good for an up and comer
I wear a smile like it's a runner
Your despise is like a badge of honour
They say she's good for an up and comer
They say she's good for an up and comer

And if you beat her like a drum
If you beat her like a heart
I bet she'll fire for you still
I swear to god she'll make a start
They said she's good for an up and comer
Can I please be an up and comer?

I wear your name like it's a noose around my neck
I spent your love like it's money I haven't got just yet

I wear a smile like it's a runner
Your despise is like a badge of honour
They say she's good for an up and comer
They say she's good for an up and comer
I wear a smile like it's a runner
Your despise is like a badge of honour
They say she's good for an up and comer
They say she's good for an up and comer

And if you beat her like a drum
If you beat her like a heart
I bet she'll fire for you still
I swear to god she'll make a start
They said she's good for an up and comer
Can I please be an up and comer?

Here we go
The devil's knocking at my door
Here we go
The devil's knocking at my door
Here we go
The devil's knocking at my door
Here we go
The devil's knocking at my door

And if you beat her like a drum
If you beat her like a heart
I bet she'll fire for you still
I swear to god she'll make a start
They said she's good for an up and comer
Can I please be an up and comer?
They said she's good for an up and comer
Can I please be an up and comer?
They said she's good for an up and comer
Can I please be an up and comer?

Here we go
The devil's knocking at my door
Here we go
The devil's knocking at my door
