lyrics

You wrote it all down wrong
In diagonal lines you're trying to hide your crimes
But did it all go wrong?
Fake, fake nerves or miles from the Midas touch

It's such a gamble now
To find you falling for me
You break the fourth wall now

Where did it all go wrong?
A mannequin, a talent so paper thin
While you sing along
You slowly suck, suck marrow from bone

It's such a gamble now
You love to play lonely
You break the fourth wall now
The cold comfort zone
The plebiscite didn't feel right
But I want to feel something else

And then you said
Call me up I will call your bluff
Has your right brain finally had enough?
Or will you sing it again ad nauseum?
Then write it again ad nauseum?
Round and round ad nauseum
