| [00:24.38] |
All we are is entertainment caught up |
| [00:27.06] |
in our own derangement |
| [00:28.87] |
Tell us what to say and what to do |
| [00:32.37] |
|
| [00:33.87] |
All we are are pretty faces, |
| [00:35.99] |
picture perfect bottled rage |
| [00:38.55] |
Packaged, synthesized versions of you |
| [00:43.16] |
We've all made petty fortunes |
| [00:45.10] |
but we can't afford a life |
| [00:47.97] |
Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms |
| [00:52.59] |
They all scream California |
| [00:54.52] |
and it's toppling empire |
| [00:57.08] |
But can't you see the end is coming soon? |
| [01:02.63] |
|
| [01:11.80] |
Come one, come all, |
| [01:12.98] |
the new sensations guarantees then obligations |
| [01:16.66] |
Spotlights follow every single move |
| [01:20.03] |
|
| [01:21.66] |
Basking here on ten foot stages, |
| [01:23.83] |
pouty lips and oh so jaded |
| [01:26.21] |
All as if we have something to prove |
| [01:30.95] |
Despite these petty fortunes |
| [01:32.76] |
we still can't afford a life |
| [01:35.76] |
Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms |
| [01:40.43] |
They all scream California |
| [01:42.18] |
and it's toppling empire |
| [01:44.74] |
But can't you see the end is near? |
| [01:49.12] |
|
| [02:07.45] |
And if we cared at all about this unknown plight |
| [02:12.01] |
Then we'd do something more |
| [02:14.38] |
to finally make this right |
| [02:18.06] |
Is this only entertainment? |
| [02:22.68] |
Pull the curtains, places please |
| [02:25.54] |
We learned to sing and dance and cry on cue |
| [02:31.28] |
|
| [02:33.90] |
But this is more than entertainment |
| [02:38.09] |
in a world so sick with pain |
| [02:41.82] |
This is the only thing that's real or true |
| [02:48.37] |
We've all made petty fortunes |
| [02:50.24] |
but we can't afford a life |
| [02:52.68] |
Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms |
| [02:57.86] |
They all scream bloody murder |
| [02:59.85] |
over graves already dug |
| [03:02.59] |
But can't you see the end? |
