Playing something stupid
Like a face that never happened
Singing something stupid
You're not singing anymore
Though you cherished the thought
Though you played to the crowd
You didn't make the mistake
Of saying anything aloud
This is a sport they should never play on the radio
Cus you just don't have the face for it
There's bile in the streets
Though that might just be
Some that trickled into your eyes
Down from a high rise
There's enough rivalries as we linger in the streets
To throw anything down to you below
Forgetting all that you've sung
But the notion that you've sung it
Singing something stupid
From the heights in your head
But you're not singing anymore
And you're tired, and you've sung
All that there is...
(You're not singing anymore)
Like a face that never happened
