[ Featuring ghosthands ]
Staring at the neon sign
Staring, I'm just wasting time
Is that how I'll look backstage
Always got the same game face
Standing there, I know you'll wanna
Wanna see a little closer but
All you're seeing is a poster
I know, you just want me to put on a show
When the lights dim, then where will I go?
You don't want me, you want the control
Well now, never notice when I'm not around
Always saying"I'm loving the sound"
Only here when you're part of the crowd
Couldn't remember what you told me when you tried to hide it
Taking apart the words I painted, said that you don't mind it
Finally found something to hold me, but you'd never buy it
It's a world you'll never know
Everywhere I went, they tried to sell me wisdom
Everybody trying to be a sage saying"Stop thinking about all of these questions"
Will you hear me when the mic's on?
Will you hear me at all
I know, you just want me to put on a show
When the lights dim, then where will I go?
You don't want me, you want the control
Well now, never notice when I'm not around
Always saying"I'm loving the sound"
Only here when you're part of the crowd
Where are those walls you built for me?
Not one to dwell on subtlety
Look back, face facts, f*ck decency
I know you always wanna hear me say
You said your grace, you paved the way
That your applause might save the day
I know, you just want me to put on a show
When the lights dim, then where will I go?
You don't want me, you want the control
Well now, never notice when I'm not around
Always saying"I'm loving the sound"
Only here when you're part of the crowd
