Elias' Words Lyrics

I've met a million people in my life
And they've all had something to say
But if I'd listened to everyone's problems
Well, I'd never get through my day

Everyone thinks they're so special
And I'm here to tell you that you're not
The only words that matter in life are the ones that Elias got

A man comes up to me and he says he used to play guitar back in his day
I said "Sir, can you please quiet down? You're in my way"
Then a woman stops me as I'm walking, and she stops me right in my place
She says "Elias, I'm such a big fan"
I said "Of course you are, now get out of my face"

Because everyone thinks they're so special
And I'm here to tell you you're not
The only words that matter in this life are the ones that Elias got

A little kid tells me that because of me he started playing guitar
I said "That's obvious kiddo, but don't forget this next part, okay?"
Elias is a star!
No matter what I do
No matter what I say
It's like more people love me every single day
And that got me thinking...
Maybe I was wrong
Maybe I misjudged them
Then I remembered

Everyone thinks they're so special
Well I'm here to tell you that you're not
The only words that matter in life are the ones that Elias got
And don't you forget it!
