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 (I don't mean to be a pessimist)
But I would never say you're heaven-sent (I would never say you're heaven-sent)
You thought I was lightning for your jar
I wish that we never met (that we never met)
Every day, I'm still filled with regret
But then again, it made me who I am (who I am)
There ain't a damn thing I would change except
Don't meet your heroes, they're not as they seem (not as they seem)
I just should've kept you on my TV screen (on my TV screen)
Oh, I learned my lesson when they put me through hell
No, don't meet your heroes without (without) knowing yourself
Don't meet your heroes, they're not as they seem (not as they seem)
I just should've kept you on my TV screen (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
