lyrics

Shameful penance goddamn
You egotistical man
You’re not the face of progress
You’re yesterday’s trash
Stylish but renown-less
No one gives a shit
Your smoke screen’s counterfeit
I press my face against the pane
The colors of city lights following me
The power and cowardice shaping the scene
So buckle up there is nothing to see
Imitation and deception will never change
This decade is a broken down stage
So take this page it’s your best bet
Say the words
Say the words you won’t regret
Big headed and you’re everyone crush
A picture with a heart means i’m loved
We’re the bones of the earth and we’re dead last
My coveted vanguard grew so fast
Timely terror and it was safely staged
You are no longer loved i’m sorry my dear
It’s a problem triggering all of your fears
I stare at myself through a camera lens
Oh god the love from my friends
I live my life through a camera lens
Oh god I’m famous and perfectly vacant
I stare at myself through a camera lens
Oh god the love from my friends
I live my life through a camera lens
Oh god I’m famous and adequately shameless
There’s nothing to see
Through my eyes I’m the prize can’t you see
