There Were Wires - Dead Starry Eyes lyrics

I'm so happy for you- you bought your way in and it worked to a certain extent...I'm so charmed. After all you were born with, it bought you confidence and the wax to burn so bright. Did you think it would scare off ghosts like me? Who are you this time? Jamie's right: "We're all so fake, and I can't make myself care." I've heard all those chords before and if they're so "tight" and "bleeding," where's all the meaning? Does this seem too abstract? Well, here's the spelling: F-A-K-E. Another winner so eager to school a loser like me, 'cause I don't have the roots or the friends or the cash. It goes on and on and on and on and on... It's not so impressive! I've heard your famous words before and they seem so impermanent. Stenciled words; penciled in! It was never a song; it was just a sketch. You keep erasing in that same spot- it makes the paper thin. That's why I write what I think in ink! So read every mistake I've made. Congratulations! Tastes change as you chace an ovation, but can you weather the critics like I can? Such thin skin deserves to be broken! In crowds change and you trade up you traitor! Who are you this time? Jamie's right: "We're all so fake, and I can't make myself care." I've heard all those chords before and if they're so "tight" and "bleeding," where's all the meaning? Does this seem too abstract? Well, here's the spelling: F-A-K-E.
