Yeah I saw you...

Wearing time like it don’t tick

Standing there like the fire ain’t lit

Corner queen with a plastic grin

Bottle sweatin’ like original sin

Thoughts on loop like rental tape

My head said “run,” my feet said “wait”

You’re a disco ghost with cigarette skin

And I swear I heard you think:

“Let’s begin…”

I got so hypnotized

By the thought of something I never knew

That you were just a surprise

And now you're leavin' with a ballyhoo

And the band plays on

The singer sang my song

And the truth gets gone

And the lights get strong

And I thought I could fly

On the wings of something I never knew

And the night would not die

And the sun

She cried in the mornin' dew

And the band plays on

The singer sang my song

And the truth gets gone

And the lights get strong

And now my head gets loud

With the sound of something I never knew

And now I'm lost in a crowd

In a world of people just like you

Peel me off the vinyl floor

I’ve been dancin’ with the EXIT door

Smoke in my lungs, glitch in my grin

Heart got hacked by the shape you’re in

Spin me like your second thought

Static in my brain from the heat you brought

I ain’t smooth, I ain’t sane

But I bite like a storm through a windowpane

Yeah!

Velvet teeth in a velvet room

Let’s break this night like a cheap perfume

I came to blur, you came to bend

So say my name with no intent

And the band plays on

The singer sang my song

And the truth gets gone

And the lights get strong

And the band plays on

The singer sang my song

And the truth gets gone

And the lights get strong
