Wish that we could walk away
From the dark that plagues the stage
Even if it’s all a fake
Pretend we’re still alive
Views are worth a million words
Even if it makes us hurt
When we claw back through the dirt
To breach the stars and shine
(Once you’ve seen the truth behind the lie)
Oh we’ve made our mistakes
We’re stuck in our place
Whatever it takes
To chase a viral moment
We’re sealed to our fate
Nothing else to take
We’ll never be safe
Wasting our final moments
Make sure to capture me
Get our best out on display
Always think of what to say
We’re running out of time
We are born here just to fade
Living endless on replay
Through the ghost of all we hate
We look so misaligned
Open the door and submerge
Forgotten if we’ve left ourselves unobserved
There’s no way out
Oh we’ve made our mistakes
We’re stuck in our place
Whatever it takes
To chase a viral moment
We’re sealed to our fate
Nothing else to take
We’ll never be safe
Wasting our final moments
