You were the first in flight Now a modern relic Nearly a payphone on a 1 a.m. sidewalk We're all cast aside And we're antiquated Right as we start to finally figure out what we are Look at you so bright State of the art You're new, you're young, your blissful ignorance Is everything they like, but the years have teeth And sometimes they bite (sometimes they bite) Look at you, you're falling apart Built to spill, you're state of the art Now look at you, well look at you now Now do you see that smile At the foot of the ladder Ain't it familiar that you was only yesterday But this justice feels More like a poison apple And inevitably everyone will bite into it
Now look at you so bright State of the art You're new, you're young, your blissful ignorance Is everything they like, but the years have teeth And sometimes they bite Look at you, you're falling apart Built to spill, you're state of the art Now look at you, well look at you now State of the art I'm falling, I'm falling apart The state of, the state of the art Look at you, you're falling apart Built to spill, you're state of the art Now look at you, well look at you now Look at you, you're falling apart Built to spill, you're state of the art Ya look at you, well look at you now State of the art State of the art Look at you so bright State of the art
